Description

For trunk interfaces, configure the VLANs for which the interface can carry traffic.

Tip:

To display a list of all configured VLANs on the system, including VLANs that are configured but not committed, type ? after vlan or vlans in your configuration mode command line. Note that only one VLAN is displayed for a VLAN range.

Note:

The number of VLANs supported per switch varies for each model. Use the configuration-mode command set vlans id vlan-id ? to determine the maximum number of VLANs allowed on a switch. You cannot exceed this VLAN limit because each VLAN is assigned an ID number when it is created. You can, however, exceed the recommended VLAN member maximum.

On an EX Series switch that runs Junos OS that does not support the Enhanced Layer 2 Software (ELS) configuration style, the maximum number of VLAN members allowed on the switch is 8 times the maximum number of VLANs the switch supports (vmember limit = vlan max * 8). If the switch configuration exceeds the recommended VLAN member maximum, you see a warning message when you commit the configuration. If you ignore the warning and commit such a configuration, the configuration succeeds but you run the risk of crashing the Ethernet switching process (eswd) due to memory allocation failure.

On an EX Series switch that runs Junos OS that supports ELS, the maximum number of VLAN members allowed on the switch is 24 times the maximum number of VLANs the switch supports (vmember limit = vlan max * 24). If the configuration of one of these switches exceeds the recommended VLAN member maximum, a warning message appears in the system log (syslog).

Options

all—Specifies that this trunk interface is a member of all VLANs that are configured on this switch. When a new VLAN is configured on the switch, this trunk interface automatically becomes a member of the VLAN.

Note:

Since VLAN members are limited, specifying all could cause the number of VLAN members to exceed the limit at some point.

Note:

Each VLAN that is configured must have a specified VLAN ID when you attempt to commit the configuration; otherwise, the configuration commit fails. Also, all cannot be the name of a VLAN on the switch.

names—Name of one or more VLANs. VLAN IDs are applied automatically in this case.

vlan-ids—Numeric identifier of one or more VLANs. For a series of tagged VLANs, specify a range; for example, 10–20 or 10–20 23 27–30.

Note:

Each configured VLAN must have a specified VLAN ID to successfully commit the configuration; otherwise, the configuration commit fails.

Required Privilege Level

routing—To view this statement in the configuration.

routing-control—To add this statement to the configuration.

interface—To view this statement in the configuration.interface-control—To add this statement to the configuration.
