Configuring for VLAN without VTP
Configuring for VLAN without using VTP consists of setting the VTP mode to
transparent, assigning a VID, and optionally assigning a name and maximum
transmission unit (MTU) size to the VLAN.
To configure VLAN without using VTP:
1. enable — Enter Administrator mode.
2. vtp mode transparent — Set the VTP mode for the storage router to
transparent. In transparent mode the storage router does not exchange VTP
packets and VLANs must be manually configured. The default setting is
client.
Note:
The VTP mode is a cluster-wide configuration item. When set by the user and
saved, the mode setting becomes active on all storage routers in the cluster.
3. vlan 100 or vlan 100 name Engineering and mtusize
9000
— Assign a VLAN identifier VID number that uniquely identifies the
VLAN. The VID can be any integer from 1 to 4095.
Optionally, a VLAN can be assigned a unique name
Engineering up to
32 characters in length. If a name is not specified, a default name is
automatically assigned. The default name has VLAN as the prefix followed
by the VID, left padded to four bytes (for example,
VLAN0100).
Optionally, an MTU size can be specified using a value from 1500 to 9000.
The default value is
1500.
Note:
VLANs are a cluster-wide configuration item. When set by the user and saved,
the VLAN information is propagated to all storage routers in the cluster.
