In cisco packet tracer, he enters:
enable
conf t
vlan 10

 

and there is no vlan and it works on the switch.

Probably licensing issue. Cisco is like that.

It's packet tracer, there is no license

Plus nothing that basic is licensed with cisco

You need to expand on what you mean because that's how you make a VLAN

You create a vlan then you assign it to ports

You just created the vlan and didn't even save it to the config

paste in a show run and we can help more

It sounds like you are talking about a Cisco IOS router, if so, they are called sub interfaces, not vlans (vlan is a switch term). The sub interface basically acts exactly like an interface once setup, expect instead of representing a physical port, it represents tagged traffic on a port.

 

Here is a quick example of how you would create VLAN 100 on g0/0

 

conf t

interface g0/0.100  (this could technically be anything, but matching it with the vlan number avoids confusion later)
encapsulation dot1Q 100  (this is where the VLAN number is set)
ip address 172.16.100.1 255.255.255.0

 

This assumes the switch port g0/0 is connected to is in trunk mode. If it is in switchport mode, this would not work.

That is how you make a vlan on a switch, not on a router.

True, I guess it would help if OP clarified a bit more since the title does say router (which your sub-interface example is correct for IOS) but the post makes no mention of a router only a switch.

Agreed, no idea what kind of router he is talking about. Might be a Netgear router that could only do it if DDWRT got installed.

Well it's Cisco packet tracer (or at least that's what OP mentions) which I don't recall having functionality to connect to outside devices like CML does.

Because it's a homework assignment. I'll show you all the homework.

I did all the tasks but I didn't know what this one was about.
