Licensing Requirements and Limitations for VLAN Aggregation

Involved Network Elements

Other network elements are not required.

Licensing Requirements

VLAN aggregation, also called super-VLAN, is a basic feature of a switch and is not under license control.

Feature Support in V200R019C10

Only the following switch models support VLAN aggregation:

S5720-EI, S5720-SI, S5720S-SI, S5720I-SI, S5730-SI, S5730S-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-S, S5731S-H, S5732-H, S5735-S, S5735S-S, S5735-S-I, S6720-SI, S6720S-SI, S6720-EI, S6720S-EI, S6720-HI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S

Feature Limitations

  • VLAN 1 cannot be configured as a super-VLAN.
  • A physical interface cannot be added to a VLAN configured as a super-VLAN.
  • A VLAN that has been configured as a guest VLAN (dynamic authorization VLAN) cannot be configured as a super-VLAN.
  • If a VLAN or the VLAN pool to which a VLAN belongs has been configured as a service VLAN for the WLAN network, the VLAN cannot be configured as a super-VLAN. Similarly, if a VLAN has been configured as a super-VLAN, the VLAN or the VLAN pool to which the VLAN belongs cannot be configured as a service VLAN for the WLAN network. In addition, if a VLAN pool has been configured as a service VLAN for a WLAN network, a super-VLAN cannot be added to the VLAN pool.
  • A traffic policy takes effect in a super-VLAN only after the traffic policy is configured in all sub-VLANs of the super-VLAN.
  • If the dot1q termination vid or qinq termination pe-vid ce-vid command is used to configure a VLAN for the VLAN termination sub-interface, the VLAN cannot be configured as a super-VLAN or sub-VLAN.
  • Proxy ARP takes effect only if an IP address is assigned to the VLANIF interface corresponding to the super-VLAN.
  • In V200R010C00 and earlier versions, only IPv4 addresses can be configured for VLANIF interfaces of super-VLANs. In versions later than V200R010C00, both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses can be configured for VLANIF interfaces of super-VLANs.
