Dell Networking S-Series: How to create VLANs using Console Command Line

Use the following procedure:

1. Open the CLI using the console or management IP for your S-series switch.
2. Log in to the privileged exec mode using your management credentials.
3. To verify existing VLAN configurations use the Show vlan command, press enter.

4. To create VLANs, run the configure terminal command to edit the switch configuration, press enter.
5. To create a single VLAN, use the interface VLAN  command where X is the VLAN number, press enter.
6. To create a range of VLANs, use the interface range vlan command followed by the VLAN numbers you want to add. For consecutive VLANs, use a hyphen. For nonconsecutive ranges, use a comma. You can also combine consecutive and nonconsecutive ranges if you must make bulk changes at one time.

Example:

• Consecutive range of VLANs 3 through 5 is: interface range vlan 3-5.
• Nonconsecutive range of VLANs 3,10, and 200 is: interface range vlan 3,10,200.
• A mix of consecutive and nonconsecutive VLANs is: interface range vlan 3-5,10,200.

7. To back out of the privileged exec mode, type End, press enter.
8. To verify the changes, rerun the command Show interface VLAN.
9. Once you have validated the changes and are ready to save your changes to the startup configuration, use the write memory command, press enter.
