Binding a Sub-interface to a VLAN

The NetEngine 8000 F processes tagged user packets received from different types of users in different manners to ensure proper packet forwarding.

Context

If users access the network through a sub-interface, the sub-interface needs to be bound to a VLAN.

You can bind a sub-interface to a VLAN or configure QinQ on a sub-interface. When binding a sub-interface to a VLAN, you need the following parameters:

  • Sub-interface number
  • VLAN ID
  • QinQ ID

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run interface interface-type interface-number. subinterface-number

    A sub-interface is created and the sub-interface view is displayed.

    • Each main interface can have only one sub-interface with the user-vlan any-other command configured. You cannot configure any-other together with start-vlan or qinq in the user-vlan command on the same sub-interface.
    • If dot1q termination, QinQ termination, QinQ stacking, or dot1q VLAN encapsulation (configured using the vlan-type dot1q command) has been configured on a sub-interface, the user-vlan command cannot be configured on this sub-interface.
    • Different sub-interfaces cannot be configured with user-side VLANs with the same VLAN ID.

  3. Depending on the user access type, run either of the following commands to create a user-side VLAN:

    • To create a user-side VLAN for Layer 2 subscriber access, run the user-vlan { start-vlan [ end-vlan ] [ dot1q start-qinq-id [ end-qinq-id ] ] | any-other } command.
    • To create a user-side VLAN for Layer 3 subscriber access, run the vlan-type dot1q vlan-id command.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
