FIGURE 81 VLAN with dynamic ports--candidate ports become active again if they receive protocol
traffic

Static ports

Static ports are permanent members of the protocol VLAN. The ports remain active members of the
VLAN regardless of whether the ports receive traffic for the VLAN protocol. You must explicitly identify
the port as a static port when you add it to the VLAN. Otherwise, the port is dynamic and is subject to
aging out.
