Deleting a VLAN from the Database, Assigning Static-Access Ports to a VLAN

Page 247 highlights

Chapter 8 Configuring VLANs VLANs in the VTP Database Deleting a VLAN from the Database When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in VTP server mode, the VLAN is removed from all switches in the VTP domain. When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in VTP transparent mode, the VLAN is deleted only on that specific switch. You cannot delete the default VLANs for the different media types: Ethernet VLAN 1 and FDDI or Token Ring VLANs 1002 to 1005. Caution When you delete a VLAN, any ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. They remain associated with the VLAN (and thus inactive) until you assign them to a new VLAN. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to delete a VLAN on the switch: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Command vlan database no vlan vlan-id exit Step 4 show vlan brief Purpose Enter VLAN configuration mode. Remove the VLAN by using the VLAN ID. Update the VLAN database, propagate it throughout the administrative domain, and return to privileged EXEC mode. Verify the VLAN removal. Assigning Static-Access Ports to a VLAN By default, all ports are static-access ports assigned to VLAN 1, which is the default management VLAN. If you are assigning a port on a cluster member switch to a VLAN, first log in to the member switch by using the privileged EXEC rcommand command. For more information on how to use this command, refer to the switch command reference. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign a port to a VLAN in the VTP database: Step 1 Step 2 Command configure terminal interface interface Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 3 exit show interface interface-id switchport Purpose Enter global configuration mode. Enter interface configuration mode, and define the interface to be added to the VLAN. Define the VLAN membership mode for this port. Assign the port to the VLAN. Return to privileged EXEC mode. Verify the VLAN configuration. In the display, check the Operation Mode, Access Mode VLAN, and the Priority for Untagged Frames fields. 78-6511-08 Catalyst 2900 Series XL and Catalyst 3500 Series XL Software Configuration Guide 8-25

Chapter 8
Configuring VLANs
VLANs in the VTP Database
Deleting a VLAN from the Database
When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in VTP server mode, the VLAN is removed from all
switches in the VTP domain. When you delete a VLAN from a switch that is in VTP transparent mode,
the VLAN is deleted only on that specific switch.
You cannot delete the default VLANs for the different media types: Ethernet VLAN 1 and FDDI or
Token Ring VLANs 1002 to 1005.
Caution
When you delete a VLAN, any ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. They remain associated
with the VLAN (and thus inactive) until you assign them to a new VLAN.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to delete a VLAN on the switch:
Assigning Static-Access Ports to a VLAN
By default, all ports are static-access ports assigned to VLAN 1, which is the default management
VLAN. If you are assigning a port on a cluster member switch to a VLAN, first log in to the member
switch by using the privileged EXEC
rcommand
command. For more information on how to use this
command, refer to the switch command reference.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign a port to a VLAN in the VTP database:
Command
Purpose
Step 1
vlan database
Enter VLAN configuration mode.
Step 2
no vlan
vlan-id
Remove the VLAN by using the VLAN ID.
Step 3
exit
Update the VLAN database, propagate it throughout the administrative
domain, and return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
show vlan brief
Verify the VLAN removal.
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface
interface
Enter interface configuration mode, and define the interface to be added to
the VLAN.
Step 3
switchport mode access
Define the VLAN membership mode for this port.
Step 4
switchport access vlan 3
Assign the port to the VLAN.
Step 5
exit
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show interface
interface-id
switchport
Verify the VLAN configuration.
In the display, check the Operation Mode, Access Mode VLAN, and the
Priority for Untagged Frames fields.
