DescriptionName
For a single VLAN, this is the VLAN name. For a range of VLANs,
this is the prefix that the system uses for each VLAN name.
The VLAN name is case sensitive.
This name can be between 1 and 32 alphanumeric characters. You
cannot use spaces or any special characters other than - (hyphen), _
(underscore), : (colon), and . (period), and you cannot change this name
after the object has been saved.
VLAN Name/Prefix field
You can choose one of the following:
• Common/Global—The VLANs apply to both fabrics and use the
same configuration parameters in both cases
• Fabric A—The VLANs only apply to fabric A.
• Fabric B—The VLAN only apply to fabric B.
• Both Fabrics Configured Differently—The VLANs apply to
both fabrics but you can specify different VLAN IDs for each
fabric.
For upstream disjoint L2 networks, we recommend that you choose
Common/Global to create VLANs that apply to both fabrics.
