Configuring VSDs with Routing Enabled
Use the VSD Add/Modify window to add or modify a VLAN
Secure Domain (VSD). When routing is enabled, this window displays the port ranges and available routing interfaces.
Adding a VSD
Procedure:
Step |
Action |
1 |
In the VSD Add/Modify
window, enter a name for the VSD, for example, math_dept. A
name can be composed of up to 32 ASCII-printable characters, except a question mark (?),
must not include spaces, and must contain at least one alphabetic character. The name
assigned must be unique. You cannot create another VSD on the same line card using the
same name. Assigning a name to a VSD is optional. |
2 |
Enter a list of bridge
ports you want to assign to the VSD. You can list the ports individually by separating
each with a comma (for example, 1,2,3,4,5) or you can enter a range of
ports by separating the first and last port numbers in the range with a hyphen (for
example, 1-5). You can also combine a list of individual entries with a
range of entries (for example, 1-4, 6,7). Spaces are not permitted
between port numbers and the comma or a hyphen.
Assigning a port list is optional. If you do not want to assign a port
list, you can specify none or leave the field blank. |
4 |
If you want to allow data from entitities
in the VSD to be routed, enter a VLAN Interface (VI) number to associate the VSD with a VI
routing interface. |
5 |
Click Apply. |
Modifying a VSD
Procedure:
Step |
Action |
1 |
To change the VSD name, in the VSD Add/Modify window, enter a new name for the VSD, for example, math_dept.
A name can be composed of up to 32 ASCII-printable characters, except a
question mark (?), must not include spaces, and must contain at least one alphabetic
character. The name assigned must be unique. You cannot create another VSD on the
same line card using the same name. Assigning a name to a VSD is optional. |
2 |
To change the bridge ports
assigned to the VSD, enter the port numbers in the Ports field. You can list the
ports individually by separating each with a comma (for example, 1,2,3,4,5)
or you can enter a range of ports by separating the first and last port numbers in the
range with a hyphen (for example, 1-5). You can also combine a list of
individual entries with a range of entries (for example, 1-4, 6,7).
Spaces are not permitted between port numbers and the comma or a hyphen.
Assigning a port list is optional. If you do not want to assign a port
list, you can specify none or leave the field blank. |

If you want to allow data from entitities
in the VSD to be routed, enter a VLAN Interface (VI) number to associate the VSD with a VI
routing interface. |

VSD Name |
Sets the VSD's name. |
Ports |
Sets the bridge ports assigned to the VSD. |
VLAN
