Changing names of configured VLANs directly in the configuration file and reloading results in a bcm56xxd switch daemon core and restart.
Switch daemon drops core, restarts, and reconfigures the switch.
Applies to all switch based platforms, when modifying the VLAN names directly in the configuration file and reloading.
First delete any existing VLANs, and then recreate then with new names.
Add additional protection and error logging for VLAN-name- and VLAN-ID-lookup failures in the switch daemon.
