By default, a VLAN
interface is up. The state
of a VLAN interface also
depends on the states of
the ports in the VLAN. If
all the ports in the VLAN
are down, the VLAN
interface is down; if one or
more ports in the VLAN
are up, the VLAN
interface is up.
If a VLAN interface is
manually shut down, the
VLAN interface is always
down regardless of the
states of ports in the
VLAN.
 Note:
Before creating a VLAN interface, ensure that the corresponding VLAN already exists.
Otherwise, the specified VLAN interface will not be created.
