Configure VLAN support on the blades

After configuring the switch to recognize VLAN traffic and direct it appropriately, configure VLAN support on each blade.
Note: Once you have assigned a VLAN to any appliance interface, returning the appliance to a VLAN-unaware (no VLAN) state requires reimaging the blade. You can, however, reassign the VLAN ID with the set interface vlan command, described below.

With new installations, you are offered the option to assign a default VLAN to interface C as part of the firstboot script.

For upgrades from VLAN-unaware configurations, or to add VLAN support after installation, use the appliance CLI as follows:

Steps

  1. Connect to the blade that you want to configure, and log on as admin.
  2. Enter config mode and enter the admin password when prompted.
  3. Use the set interface vlan command to assign a VLAN ID to the first interface.
    For example:
    set interface vlan --interface p1 --vid 400
  4. Use the set interface vlan command to assign a VLAN ID to the second interface.
    For example:
    set interface vlan --interface p2 --vid 1025
  5. When you are finished, use the show interface info command to review the updated configuration.
