The primary input to this command is the '*interface*' +and '*subId*' (subinterface Id) parameters. If no additional VLAN ID is +provide, the VLAN ID is assumed to be the '*subId*'. The VLAN ID and +'*subId*' can be different, but this is not recommended. + +This command has several variations: + +- **create sub-interfaces ** - Create a subinterface + to process packets with a given 802.1q VLAN ID (same value as the + '*subId*'). +- **create sub-interfaces default** - Adding the + '*default*' parameter indicates that packets with VLAN IDs that do + not match any other subinterfaces should be sent to this + subinterface. +- **create sub-interfaces untagged** - Adding the + '*untagged*' parameter indicates that packets no VLAN IDs should be + sent to this subinterface. +- **create sub-interfaces -** - Create a + range of subinterfaces to handle a range of VLAN IDs. +- **create sub-interfaces dot1q|dot1ad |any + [exact-match]** - Use this command to specify the outer VLAN ID, to + either be explicited or to make the VLAN ID different from the + '*subId*'. +- **create sub-interfaces dot1q|dot1ad |any + inner-dot1q |any [exact-match]** - Use this command to + specify the outer VLAN ID and the innner VLAN ID. + +When '*dot1q*' or '*dot1ad*' is explictly entered, subinterfaces can be +configured as either exact-match or non-exact match. Non-exact match is +the CLI default. If '*exact-match*' is specified, packets must have the +same number of VLAN tags as the configuration. For non-exact-match, +packets must at least that number of tags. L3 (routed) interfaces must +be configured as exact-match. L2 interfaces are typically configured as +non-exact-match. If '*dot1q*' or '*dot1ad*' is NOT entered, then the +default behavior is exact-match. + +Use the '*show interface*' command to display all subinterfaces. + +Summary/Usage +------------- + +.. code-block:: shell + + create sub-interfaces { [default|untagged]} | {-} | { dot1q|dot1ad |any [inner-dot1q |any] [exact-match]}. + +Examples +-------- + +Example of how to create a VLAN subinterface 11 to process packets on 802.1q VLAN ID 11: + +.. code-block:: console + + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 + +The previous example is shorthand and is equivalent to: + +.. code-block:: console + + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 11 exact-match + +Example of how to create a subinterface number that is different from the VLAN ID: + +.. code-block:: console + + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100 + +Examples of how to create q-in-q and q-in-any subinterfaces: + +.. code-block:: console + + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q 200 + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q any + +Examples of how to create dot1ad interfaces: + +.. code-block:: console + + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1ad 11 + vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1ad 100 inner-dot1q 200 + +Examples of '*exact-match*' versus non-exact match.
