create each VLAN. For example, to create VLAN 10, type "vlan 10" and press
Enter. Repeat this step for each VLAN you want to create.
4. Assign VLAN Names: Assign a descriptive name to each VLAN using the
"name" command. For example, to assign the name "Sales" to VLAN 10, type
"name Sales" while in VLAN configuration mode.
5. Assign Ports to VLANs: Enter interface configuration mode for each port you
want to assign to a VLAN. Use the "interface" command followed by the port
number or range (e.g., "interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1" or "interface range
GigabitEthernet 1/0/1-24").

access") and the "switchport access vlan" command to assign the VLAN to the
port. For example, to assign VLAN 10 to an access port, type "switchport mode
access" followed by "switchport access vlan 10".
