Configuring VLAN Interfaces

Default Setting
VLAN 1

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

When using Access mode, and an interface is assigned to a new VLAN, its PVID is automatically
set to the identifier for that VLAN. When using Hybrid mode, the PVID for an interface can be
set to any VLAN for which it is an untagged member.

If acceptable frame types is set to all or switchport mode is set to hybrid, the PVID will be
inserted into all untagged frames entering the ingress port.

Example
The following example shows how to set the PVID for port 1 to VLAN 3:

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1

Console(config-if)#switchport native vlan 3

Console(config-if)#

vlan-trunking

This command allows unknown VLAN groups to pass through the specified interface. Use the no
form to disable this feature.

Syntax

[no] vlan-trunking

Default Setting
Disabled

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

Use this command to configure a tunnel across one or more intermediate switches which pass
traffic for VLAN groups to which they do not belong.
The following figure shows VLANs 1 and 2 configured on switches A and B, with VLAN trunking
being used to pass traffic for these VLAN groups across switches C, D and E.
