2.2.2 Configuring Multiple VLANS — Cisco Catalyst
The following commands illustrate how to create multiple VLANs on the Cisco Catalyst. First, the switch is put
in configuration mode, then the vlan 30-35 command is issued to create VLANs 30 through 35. Optionally,
names can be given to each VLAN to help identify them. Configuration mode is then exited and the show
vlan brief command is issued to verify the creation of the VLANs.
C6504#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
C6504(config)#vlan 31-35
