Brocade VDX: How To Create A VLAN On A VDX6740

Just a quick walk-through on creating a VLAN on the VDX.  First, lets see what VLANs are on the 6740 by default:
sw0# sh vlan brie
Total Number of VLANs configured    : 2
Total Number of VLANs provisioned   : 2
Total Number of VLANs unprovisioned : 0
VLAN             Name            State                      Ports           Classification
(F)-FCoE                                                    (u)-Untagged
(R)-RSPAN                                                   (c)-Converged
(T)-TRANSPARENT                                             (t)-Tagged
================ =============== ==========================
1                default         INACTIVE(no member port)
1002(F)          VLAN1002        INACTIVE(no member port)


Now, lets create VLAN 2:
sw0(config)# int vlan 2
2016/08/05-20:00:34, [NSM-1004], 10800, SW/0 | Active | DCE, INFO, VDX6740,  Interface Vlan 2 is created.

sw0(config)# do sh vlan brie
Total Number of VLANs configured    : 3
Total Number of VLANs provisioned   : 3
Total Number of VLANs unprovisioned : 0
VLAN             Name            State                      Ports           Classification
(F)-FCoE                                                    (u)-Untagged
(R)-RSPAN                                                   (c)-Converged
(T)-TRANSPARENT                                             (t)-Tagged
================ =============== ==========================
1                default         INACTIVE(no member port)
2                VLAN0002        INACTIVE(no member port)
1002(F)          VLAN1002        INACTIVE(no member port)

sw0(config)#
