The split is unnecessary for validating VLAN numbers and names.
Here is sample validation code for vlan name:
if ( $vlan_name =~ m|^\w[\w-]*$| ){
# Name complies with :
# * At least one char
# * Starts with a letter, number or underscore
# * Contains only alpha, num, underscore, hyphem
}else{
# Complain about non-compliant name
}
Similarly, the vlan number numeric check should be:
if ($vlan_number =~ m|^\d+$|) {
# Compliant - numeric only
}else{
# Something Not completely numeric - display error.
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
