vlan-name

vlan-name [assignment even {ip-timeout | max-ip-timeouts | full-period} | hash]

Description

This command creates a named VLAN on themanaged deviceand given an assignment type.

Parameter	Description
	Name of the VLAN.
assignment	Sets the assignment type. This determines how a VLAN assignment is handled by themanaged device. Range:1–32 characters
even	任务类型设置为偶数。甚至assignment type is based on an even distribution of VLAN pool assignments.
ip-timeout	Enables VLAN pooling resiliency. Configures the timeout value, in seconds, before declaring a client's DHCP request as timed out. Range:0-180 Default:3
max-ip-timeouts	Configures the maximum number of IP timeouts allowed before marking the VLAN as full. Range:1-128 Default:3
full-period	Time period, in seconds, for a VLAN to be marked as full. Range:30-3600 Default:30
hash	Sets the assignment type as hash. The hash type means that the VLAN assignment is based on the station MAC address.

Create a named VLAN so you can set up a VLAN pool. A VLAN pool consists of a set of VLAN IDs which are grouped together to efficiently manage multi-managed devicenetworks from a single location.

The Even VLAN assignment type maintains a dynamic latest usage level of each VLAN ID. Therefore, as users age out, the number of available addresses increases. This leads to a more even distribution of addresses.

The Even type is only supported in tunnel and decrypt tunnel forwarding modes. It is not supported in split or bridge modes and it is not allowed for VLAN pools that are configured directly under a virtual AP. It can only be used under named VLANs. If a VLAN is given an Even assignment in bridge mode, a message displays indicating that the Hash assignment is automatically used instead to retrieve the VLAN ID.
