Configuring VLAN interfaces

Overview

For hosts of different VLANs to communicate at Layer 3, you can use VLAN interfaces. VLAN interfaces

are virtual interfaces used for Layer 3 communication between different VLANs. They do not exist as

physical entities on devices. For each VLAN, you can create one VLAN interface. You can assign the

VLAN interface an IP address and specify the IP address as the gateway address for the devices in the

VLAN, so that traffic can be routed to other IP subnets.

Creating a VLAN interface

IMPORTANT:

Before creating a VLAN interface, you must create the corresponding VLAN in Network > VLAN. For

more information, see "Configuring VLANs."

When creating a VLAN interface, you can select to assign an IPv4 address and an IPv6 link-local

address to the VLAN interface in this step or in a separate step. If you do not select to configure an IP

address, you can create the VLAN interface, and configure an IP address for the VLAN interface by

modifying it.

To create a VLAN interface:

1. Select Network > VLAN Interface from the navigation tree.

2. Click Create to enter the page for creating a VLAN interface.
