72.5. How to assign a VLAN for Ethernet interface

Enter into the Abilis control-program or open the configuration file with the Console configurator and type the following commands.

a dev:eth-3Add an Ethernet device (e.g. ETH-3).
s p eth-3 max-vlans:1Configure the max number of VLANs (e.g. 1).
a res:ip-3 subtype:lanAdd an “IP over LAN” resource (e.g. IP-3).
s p ip-3 lanres:eth-3Configure the ETH-3 as the IP-3 lower resource.
s p ip-3 vlan-id:35Configure the VLAN Identifier (e.g. 35).
s p ip-3 ipadd:88.88.88.88/24Configure the IP address and the mask.
s p ip-3 descr:WAN_tag_35Configure the description of the IP resource.
save confSave the configuration.

On a working Abilis, a system restart is required to make the ETH-3 device and the IP-3 resource running.

[Warning]Warning

The VLAN is supported only for Ethernets that supports gigabit speed: Realtek RTL8169/8168/8110/8111, Broadcom BCM5754. The Ethernet resource diagnostics indicates whether it supports VLAN or not (VLAN-SUPPORT:YES).

Enter into the Abilis control-program or open the configuration file with the Console configurator and type the following commands.

a dev:eth-3Add an Ethernet device (e.g. ETH-3).
s p eth-3 max-vlans:5Configure the max number of VLANs (e.g. 5).

s p ip-4 vlan-id:35Configure the VLAN Identifier (e.g. 35).
s p ip-4 ipadd:85.85.85.85/24Configure the IP address and the mask.
