• Tag-type and tag-profile cannot be configured at the same time. You will see the message "un-
configure the tag-type to set the tag-profile." It tag-type is already configured, you will need to
unconfigure it and then add the tag-profile .
• Do not use the tag-type command in conjunction with the tag-profile command. If a tag-type has
already been configured and you try to use the tag-profile command, you will see an error
message telling you to remove the tag-type before you add the tag-profile.
• For devices operating in an IronStack topology, when a tag-type for a port is changed, the tag-type
for all of the ports on a stack unit also changes. Because of this limitation, SAV and Q-in-Q cannot
be used at the same time on stacking devices.
CLI Syntax for 802.1ad tagging
To add a global tag-profile enter the following command.
device(config)# tag-profile 9500
This command adds a profile in addition to the default profile of 0x8100.
Syntax: [no] tag-profile tag-no
where tag-no can be 0x8100 (the default) or 0xffff.
To enable the new profile on individual ports, enter commands similar to the following.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
device(config-if-e1000-1/1/1)# tag-profile enable
device(config-mif-1/1/1,1/2/1)# tag-profile enable
Syntax: [no] tag-profile enable
Private VLAN configuration
A private VLAN (PVLAN) is a VLAN that has the properties of standard Layer 2 port-based VLANs but
also provides additional control over flooding packets on a VLAN. The following table shows an
example of an application using a PVLAN.
