Syntax (EX Series with ELS Switches and MX Routers)

Syntax (SRX Series Firewalls)

Description

Display information about VLANs configured on bridged Ethernet interfaces. For interfaces configured to support a VoIP VLAN and a data VLAN, the show vlans command displays both tagged and untagged membership for those VLANs.

Note:

When a series of VLANs is created using the vlan-range statement, such VLAN names are preceded and followed by a double underscore. For example, a series of VLANs using the VLAN range 1 through 3 and the base VLAN name marketing would be displayed as __marketing_1__, __marketing_2__, and __marketing_3__.

Note:

To display an 802.1X supplicant successfully authenticated in multiple-supplicant mode with dynamic VLAN movement, use the show vlans vlan-name extensive operational mode command, where vlan-name is the dynamic VLAN.

Options

For EX Series and QFX Series switches:

none

Display information for all VLANs. VLAN information is displayed by VLAN name in ascending order.

VLANs summary

VLAN counts:

  • Total—Total number of VLANs on the switch.

  • Configured VLANs—Number of VLANs that are based on user-configured settings.

  • Internal VLANs—Number of VLANs created by the system with no explicit configuration or protocol—for example, the default VLAN and the VLAN created when a trunk interface is not configured with native VLAN membership.

  • Temporary VLANs—Number of VLANs from the previous configuration that the system retains for a limited time after restart. Temporary VLANs are converted into one of the other types of VLAN, or are removed from the system if the current configuration does not require them.

All levels

Dot1q VLANs summary

802.1Q VLAN counts:

  • Total—Total number of 802.1Q-tagged and untagged VLANs on the switch.

  • Tagged VLANs—Number of 802.1Q-tagged VLANs.

  • Untagged VLANs—Number of untagged 802.1Q VLANs.

  • Private VLAN—Counts of the following kinds of 802.1Q private VLANs (PVLANs):

    • Primary VLANs—Number of primary forwarding private VLANs.

    • Community VLANs—Number of community transporting and forwarding private VLANs.
