switchport mode {access | hybrid | trunk | private-vlan}
no switchport mode

access - Specifies an access VLAN interface. The port transmits and

receives untagged frames on a single VLAN only.
hybrid - Specifies a hybrid VLAN interface. The port may transmit

tagged or untagged frames.
trunk - Specifies a port as an end-point for a VLAN trunk. A trunk is

a direct link between two switches, so the port transmits tagged

frames that identify the source VLAN. Note that frames belonging to

the port’s default VLAN (i.e., associated with the PVID) are also

transmitted as tagged frames.
private-vlan - For an explanation of this command see the

switchport mode private-vlan

command.

Access mode is mutually exclusive with VLAN trunking (see the

vlan-

trunking

command). If VLAN trunking is enabled on an interface, then that

interface cannot be set to access mode, and vice versa.
