During the licensing and initial configuration procedures, you configure a single VLAN and associated self IP addresses. This is all the networking configuration required to start managing devices. However, if you find you need additional VLANs, the BIG-IQ^® system provides you with the ability to add them as required.

1. Log in to BIG-IQ System with your administrator user name and password.
2. At the top of the screen, click Configuration.
3. Hover over the VLANs panel and click the + sign when it appears.
4. In the Name and Description fields, type a name and description to identify this new VLAN.
5. From the Device list, select the BIG-IQ system to associate with this new VLAN.
6. From the Interface list, select the port that you want this VLAN to use.

   The interface is a physical or virtual port that you use to connect the BIG-IQ system to managed devices in your network.

7. Click the Add button to save this VLAN.
8. Hover on the Self IP Addresses panel and click the + when it appears.
