3. Create the IP and IPX protocol-based VLANs and statically assign the ports within VLAN 2 that will
be associated with each protocol-based VLAN.
device-A(config-vlan-2)# ip-proto name Red
device-A(config-vlan-ip-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-ip-proto)# static e1 to 4 e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-ip-proto)# exclude e5 to 8
device-A(config-vlan-ip-proto)# ipx-proto name Blue
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# static e1 e5 to 8 e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# exclude e2 to 4
4. To prevent machines with non-IP protocols from getting into the IP portion of VLAN 2, create another
Layer 3 protocol VLAN to exclude all other protocols from the ports that contains the IP-protocol
VLAN. To do so, enter the following commands.
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# other-proto name Block_other_proto
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# exclude e1 to 8
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)#
5. Create port-based VLAN 3. Note that FSX-B will be the root for this STP domain, so you do not need
to adjust the STP priority.
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# vlan 3 name IP-Sub_IPX-Net_Vlans
device-A(config-vlan-3)# untagged e9 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-3)# tagged e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-3)# spanning-tree
device-A(config-vlan-3)#
6. Create IP subnet VLAN 10.1.1.0/24, IPX network 1, and other-protocol VLANs
device-A(config-vlan-3)# ip-subnet 10.1.1.0/24 name Green
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# static e9 to 12 e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# exclude e13 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-ip-subnet)# ipx-net 1 ethernet_802.3 name Brown
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# static e9 e13 to 16 e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# exclude e10 to 12
device-A(config-vlan-ipx-network)# other-proto name Block_other_proto
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# no dynamic
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# exclude e9 to 16
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)#
7. Configure the last port-based VLAN 4. You need to set the STP priority for this VLAN because FSX-
A will be the root bridge for this VLAN. Because you do not need to partition this STP domain into
multiple Layer 3 broadcast domains, this is the only configuration required for VLAN 4.
device-A(config-vlan-other-proto)# vlan 4 name Purple_ALL-Protocols
device-A(config-vlan-4)# untagged e17 to 24
device-A(config-vlan-4)# tagged e25 to 26
device-A(config-vlan-4)# spanning-tree
device-A(config-vlan-4)# spanning-tree priority 500
device-A(config-vlan-4)#
Configuring Layer 3 VLANs on FSX-B
Enter the following commands to configure FSX-B.
device# config t
device(config)# host device-B
device-B(config)#vlan 2 name IP_IPX_Protocol
device-B(config-vlan-2)# untagged e1 to 8
device-B(config-vlan-2)# tagged e25 to 26
device-B(config-vlan-2)# spanning-tree
device-B(config-vlan-2)# ip-proto name Red
device-B(config-vlan-ip-proto)# # no dynamic
device-B(config-vlan-ip-proto)# static e1 to 4 e25 to 26
device-B(config-vlan-ip-proto)# exclude e5 to 8
device-B(config-vlan-ip-proto)# ipx-proto name Blue
device-B(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# no dynamic
device-B(config-vlan-ipx-proto)# static e5 to 8 e25 to 26
