5224 VLAN creation using CLI
Hi all, I hope this is an easy one for you!
I run a network that has five 5224 switches, all of which are in production under heavy use. Basically, the web management piece has stopped working, and while I know a reboot will temporarily fix the problem, I can't do it without great pain to my users. Now, all of the documentation that I can find on the switch only describes creating VLANs using the web piece, but I can only access the switch via RS-232 and telnet! Can someone give me step-by-step directions on creating a VLAN and assigning ports to it via the CLI? I have done this before on Cisco equipment, but it's been a while!!
Also, is there a way to update firmware via the CLI, and if so, how do you do it?

The online Command Line Reference guide has the best information about navigating the CLI. The following link will take you directly to the VLAN section of the guide:The commands necessary to update the firmware (opcode) are at the following link:
If you are updating the firmware from the 1.x revision, you will need to perform the following steps due to the change in block size.
If there is still not enough flash to copy your configuration file back to the switch, you may need to reboot to the new opcode using the default configuration. Once the switch is rebooted, you can set an IP address and then copy the configuration file from the TFTP server.
