How do I configure

[valraeverbois]

I have a Cisco 6509 connected (gig3/17) to a Cisco 3560 G switch (Gig 0/28).  The 3560 switch Gig 0/26)is connected to a distribution switch on another network.  The ip address on my 6500 is 10.120.11.244 255.255.252.0 and the ip address on my 3560 is 10.120.11.211.  The ip address given to me by the other network is 10.162.20.10 255.255.255.252.  How do I configure the new vlan in this situation and the ip address given to me.

You don't need to configure a vlan if there is only one port associated with the IP address:

you can simply configure the port on the 6500 as a routed port and add ip (10.162.20.10 255.255.255.252) to it.

config t

inter x/xx

ip address 10.162.20.10 255.255.255.252

no sh

My 6509 is not directly connected to the other network.  There is a 3560 switch in between.  Wouldn't the 10.162.20.10 ip address have to be on it? 

[Reza Sharifi]

In that case you can configure a vlan and add the interface and the ip to it.  You need to creat the same vlan on the 3560G.

example for 6500

vlan 100

name test

interface vlan 100

ip address 10.162.20.10 255.255.255.252

no sh

interfa gig3/17

switchport

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 100

on the 3560

vlan 100

name test

interfa gig0/28

switchport

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 100

Thank you so much. I will try that.
