Verifying That a Series of Tagged VLANs Has Been Created

Purpose

Verify that a series of tagged VLANs has been created on the switch.

Action

1. Display the VLANs in the ascending order of their VLAN ID:
   user@switch> show vlans sort-by tag

   Name             Tag        Interfaces
   __employee_120__  120
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_121__  121
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_122__  122
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_123__  123
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_124__  124
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_125__  125
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_126__  126
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_127__  127
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_128__  128
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_129__  129
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_130__  130
                               xe-0/0/22.0*
   

2. Display the VLANs by the alphabetical order of the VLAN name:
   user@switch> show vlans sort-by name

   Name             Tag   Interfaces
   
   __employee_120__ 120
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_121__ 121
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_122__ 122
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_123__ 123
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_124__ 124
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_125__ 125
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_126__ 126
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_127__ 127
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_128__ 128
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_129__ 129
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_130__ 130
                          xe-0/0/22.0*

3. Display the VLANs by specifying the VLAN range name (here, the VLAN range name is employee):
   user@switch> show vlans employee

   Name             Tag   Interfaces
   
   __employee_120__ 120
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_121__ 121
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_122__ 122
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_123__ 123
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_124__ 124
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_125__ 125
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_126__ 126
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_127__ 127
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_128__ 128
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_129__ 129
                          xe-0/0/22.0*
   __employee_130__ 130
                          xe-0/0/22.0*

Meaning

The sample output shows the VLANs configured on the switch. The series of tagged VLANs is displayed: __employee__120__ through __employee_130__. Each of the tagged VLANs is configured on the trunk interface xe-0/0/22.0. The asterisk (*) next to the interface name indicates that the interface is UP.

When a series of VLANs is created using the vlan-range statement, the VLAN names are preceded and followed by a double underscore.
