Managing VLANs
Client-side or a server-side VLAN terminology logically distinguishes the VLANs facing the client-side and the VLANs connecting to the servers or destination devices. However, CVDM-CSM client and server VLANs function very similarly.
CVDM-CSM allows you to configure the client-side and server-side VLANs. You can configure up to 7 gateways and 255 alias IP addresses per VLAN.
This section includes the following topics:
•
Viewing a VLAN
• Adding a VLAN
• Editing a VLAN
• Viewing VLAN Clients
• Viewing a VLAN Server
