Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After the name command is run to set a VLAN name, you can run the vlan vlan-name command in the system view to enter the corresponding VLAN view.

Assume that a device has multiple VLANs and each VLAN has a name. If you need to delete the VLAN that is used to transmit voice services but cannot remember the ID of the VLAN, you can run the undo vlan vlan-name command to delete the VLAN by inputting the VLAN name.

Prerequisites

Before running the vlan vlan-name command, ensure that the name command is run to set the VLAN name.

Precautions

When you run the undo vlan vlan-name command to delete a VLAN, services configured for the VLAN are deleted at the same time. The deleted services cannot be restored even if you recreate the VLAN. Therefore, exercise caution when running the undo vlan vlan-name command.

Example

# Enter the view of the VLAN named user1.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] vlan vlan-name user1
[HUAWEI-vlan2]
