Configuring Normal-Range VLANs
You can also create or modify Ethernet VLANs by using the VLAN database configuration mode.
Note
VLAN database configuration mode does not support RSPAN VLAN configuration or extended-range
VLANs.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to use VLAN database configuration mode to

Deleting a VLAN
When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in VTP server mode, the VLAN is removed from the
VLAN database for all switches in the VTP domain. When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in
VTP transparent mode, the VLAN is deleted only on that specific switch or a switch stack.

Enter VLAN database configuration mode.
Step 2
vlan vlan-id name vlan-name
Add an Ethernet VLAN by assigning a number to it. The range is 1 to
1001. You can create or modify a range of consecutive VLANs by
entering vlan first-vlan-id end last-vlan-id.
