Enable a New VLAN Name

If you configure a new VLAN name, the VLAN name is not transmitted by default (that is, the TLV transmission status of the newly configured VLAN is disabled).

1. At switch 1, create a VLAN with the VLAN ID set to 2, the VLAN name set to VLAN 2, and the extreme-ethernet 0/1 port as a member.

   SEFOS# configure terminal
   SEFOS(config)# vlan 2
    
   SEFOS(config-vlan)# ports extreme-ethernet 0/1 name vlan2
   SEFOS(config-vlan)# end

2. Review the TLV transmission status of the VLAN names in the local system information.

   SEFOS# show lldp local extreme-ethernet 0/1
   ...
   -Vlan Name
   Vlan Id        Vlan Name                    TxStatus
   -------        ---------                    --------
   1            vlan1                        Enabled
   2            vlan2                        Disabled

3. Enable the configured VLAN name for transmission.

   SEFOS# configure terminal
   SEFOS(config)# interface extreme-ethernet 0/1
   SEFOS(config-if)# lldp tlv-select dot1tlv vlan-name 2
   SEFOS(config)# end

4. Review the TLV transmission status of the VLAN names.

   SEFOS# show lldp local extreme-ethernet 0/1
   ...
   -Vlan Name
   Vlan Id        Vlan Name                    TxStatus
   -------        ---------                    --------
   1            vlan1                        Enabled
   2            vlan2                        Enabled
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------

5. At switch 2, review learned neighbor information on interface extreme-ethernet 0/1.

   SEFOS# show lldp neighbors extreme-ethernet 0/1 detail
   ...
   -Vlan Name
   Vlan Id        Vlan Name
   -------        ---------
   1            vlan1
   2            vlan2
