Complete these steps in order to create a VLAN.
1. Decide whether to use VTP in your network.
With VTP, you can make configuration changes centrally on a single switch, and you can automatically communicate those changes to all the other switches in the network. The default VTP mode on the Catalyst 2900XL, 3500XL, 2950, 2970, and 2940 Switches is the server mode.
Note: Issue the show vtp status command in order to check the VTP status on XL Series Switches.
3524XL#show vtp status
VTP Version : 2
Configuration Revision : 0
Maximum VLANs supported locally : 254
Number of existing VLANs : 5
VTP Operating Mode : Server
!--- This is the default mode.
VTP Domain Name :
VTP Pruning Mode : Disabled
VTP V2 Mode : Disabled
VTP Traps Generation : Disabled
MD5 digest : 0xBF 0x86 0x94 0x45 0xFC 0xDF 0xB5 0x70
Configuration last modified by 0.0.0.0 at 0-0-00 00:00:00
2. After you set and verify the VTP domain, begin to create VLANs on the switch.
By default, there is only a single VLAN for all ports. This VLAN is called default . You cannot rename or delete VLAN 1.
Issue the show vlan command in order to check the VLAN information.
3524XL#show vlan

Issue this set of commands in privileged mode in order to create another VLAN:
3524XL#vlan database
!--- You must enter into VLAN database in order to configure any VLAN.
3524XL(vlan)#vtp server
Device mode already VTP SERVER.
!--- You can skip this command if the switch is already in server mode and you
!--- want the switch to be in server mode.
Note: A switch can only create VLANs if it is in VTP server mode or VTP transparent mode. Refer to Understanding VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more information on VTP.
