How to Create a PVLAN and Assign to a Zone

1. Become an administrator.

   For more information, see Using Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.3.

2. Create a PVLAN.

   # dladm create-vlan -l link -v VLAN-ID[,PVLAN-SVID[,PVLAN-type]] [VLAN-link]

3. Verify the VLAN that you created.

   # dladm show-vlan

4. Configure the zone and assign the PVAN that you created.

   global# zonecfg -z zone-name 
   zonecfg:zone-name> add net
   zonecfg:zone-name:net> set physical=VLAN-ID
   zonecfg:zone-name:net> end
   zonecfg:zone-name> verify
   zonecfg:zone-name> commit
   zonecfg:zone-name> exit
   global# zoneadm -z zone-name reboot

Example 25  Creating a PVLAN and Assigning to a Zone

This example shows how to create a PVLAN and then assign the same PVLAN to a zone.

# dladm create-vlan -l net0 -v 110,120,community vlan110
# dladm show-vlan
LINK         VID     SVID    PVLAN-TYPE  FLAGS  OVER
vlan110      110     120     community   -----  net0
global# zonecfg -z zone2
zonecfg:zone2> add net
zonecfg:zone2:net> set physical=vlan110
zonecfg:zone2:net> end
zonecfg:zone2> verify
zonecfg:zone2> commit
zonecfg:zone2> exit
global# zoneadm -z zone2 reboot
# dladm show-vlan
LINK            VID     SVID    PVLAN-TYPE  FLAGS  OVER
vlan110         110     120     community   -----  net0
zone2/vlan110   110     120     community   -----  net0

The PVLAN that is created is assigned to the zone.
