Adding new VLANs via CLI (PowerConnect 62xx series)
I've got a pair of 6248 switches that are stacked. The stack has 4 VLANs known & active right now, but I need to add 2 more. Based on my reading, I would do the following?
Current:
configure
vlan database
vlan 101,2001,2200,3200
exit
-----------
interface vlan 101
name "VLAN for disabled ports"
exit
interface vlan 2001
name "mgmt VLAN"
exit
interface vlan 2200
name "DMZ"
internet vlan 3200
name "Internet"
*********************************************************************
In order to add 2 new VLANs to this switch, I would do the following?
console(config)# interface vlan 432
console(config-if)# name "New-vlan1"
exit
console(config)# interface vlan 532
console(config-if)# name "New-Vlan2"
exit
----------------
console# config
console(config)# vlan database
console(config-vlan)# vlan 432,532
exit
sooo............. The config-line for the vlan database will go from:
vlan 101,2001,2200,3200
to
vlan 101,2001,2200,3200,432,532
correct? --Then after these two things are done, then can I add these VLANs to my channel-group, right? --they have to be known to the switch first, before the can be added to the channel-group...?
Thanks!

Hi,
You would do the vlan database part first so they are part of the database and then configure the names of the vlan interfaces but otherwise, yes once you have done those steps you can use them.
