Step1         Configure the VLANs and VLAN interfaces.

Code Block
admin@XorPlus#admin@SwitchD# set vlans vlan-id 30 l3-interface 30
admin@XorPlus#admin@SwitchD# set vlans vlan-id 50 l3-interface 50
admin@XorPlus#admin@SwitchD# set interface gigabit-ethernet ge-1/1/3 family ethernet-switching native-vlan-id 30
admin@XorPlus#admin@SwitchD# set interface gigabit-ethernet ge-1/1/5 family ethernet-switching native-vlan-id 50
admin@XorPlus#admin@SwitchD# set vlan-interface interface 30 vif 40 address 192.168.30.2 prefix-length 24
