2) Enter configuration mode

3) Enter vlan mode
switch-2-1(config)#vlan database
4) Create a vlan with command "vlan <number of new vlan>"
switch-2-1(config-vlan)#vlan 5 Warning: The use of large numbers of VLANs or interfaces may cause significant delays in applying the configuration.

Assigning Ports to a VLAN
1) Enter privilege mode with enable command. Then enter configuration mode. Next, use the interface ethernet <port-number> command to select a port for configuration.
switch-2-1(config)#interface ethernet 1/g12
Your prompt should now contain the selected port.
switch-2-1(config-if-1/g12)#
2) Add your port to the your selected vlan with command: switchport <mode> [add (this section not necessary depending on mode)] vlan <vlan number>
switch-2-1(config-if-1/g12)#switchport access vlan 200 Warning: The use of large numbers of VLANs or interfaces may cause significant delays in applying the configuration.
