+VLAN Sub-Interfaces (802.1Q)
+----------------------------
+.. _interfaces-vlan:
+
+802.1Q VLAN interfaces are represented as virtual sub-interfaces in VyOS. The
+term used for this is `vif`. Configuration of a tagged sub-interface is
+accomplished using the configuration command
+`set interfaces ethernet <name> vif <vlan-id>`.
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100 description 'VLAN 100'
+ set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100 address '192.168.100.1/24'
+ set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100 address '2001:db8:100::1/64'
+
+Resulting in:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ ethernet eth1 {
+ address 192.168.100.1/24
+ address 2001:db8:100::1/64
+ description INSIDE
+ duplex auto
+ hw-id 00:0c:29:44:3b:19
+ smp_affinity auto
+ speed auto
+ vif 100 {
+ address 192.168.100.1/24
+ description "VLAN 100"
+ }
+ }
+
+VLAN interfaces are shown as `<name>.<vlan-id>`, e.g. `eth1.100`:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ vyos@vyos:~$ show interfaces
+ Codes: S - State, L - Link, u - Up, D - Down, A - Admin Down
+ Interface IP Address S/L Description
+ --------- ---------- --- -----------
