Managing Network Virtualization and Network Resources in Oracle^® Solaris 11.3

Modifying PVLAN VNICs

You can modify the primary and secondary VLAN IDs and the PVLAN type of PVLAN VNICs by using the dladm modify-vnic command. The syntax is as follows:

# dladm modify-vnic [-v VLAN-ID[,PVLAN-SVID[,PVLAN-type]] VNIC

Example 18  Modifying a PVLAN VNIC

The following example modifies the primary VLAN ID to 5, the secondary VLAN ID to 102, and the PVLAN type to isolated.

# dladm show-vnic -v
LINK       VID  SVID  PVLAN-TYPE  OVER
vnic2      4    101   community   net1
# dladm modify-vnic -v 5,102,isolated vnic2
# dladm show-vnic -v
LINK       VID  SVID  PVLAN-TYPE  OVER
vnic2      5    102   isolated    net1
