By default, VLAN names are in the format VLAN vlan-id. For example, the name of VLAN 100 is VLAN 0100 by default.

5. Configure the description of the VLAN.

The default setting is VLAN vlan-id, which is the ID of the VLAN. For example, the description of VLAN 100 is VLAN 0100 by default.


[NOTE: ]

NOTE:

  • As the system default VLAN, VLAN 1 cannot be created or deleted.

  • Before you delete a dynamic VLAN, a VLAN configured with the QoS policy, or a VLAN locked by an application, you must first remove the configuration from the VLAN.
