Converting a Dynamic GVRP VLAN

This procedure converts a dynamic GVRP VLAN into a static VLAN. You
can perform this procedure to permanently retain the VLANs the switch
learned through GVRP.

Note

This procedure cannot convert a dynamic GVRP port in a static
VLAN into a static port. For that you must manually modify the static
VLAN, specifying the dynamic port as either a tagged or untagged
member of the VLAN.

To convert a dynamic GVRP VLAN to a static VLAN, perform the following
procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 2 to select VLAN Configuration.

The VLAN Configuration menu is shown in Figure 188 on page 559.

2. From the VLAN Configuration menu, type 4 to select Configure

VLANs.

The Configure VLANs menu is shown in Figure 189 on page 560.

Note

If option “4 - Configure VLANs” is not displayed in the menu, the
switch is running a multiple VLAN mode. To change a switch’s
VLAN mode, refer to “Selecting a VLAN Mode” on page 612.

3. From the Configure VLANs menu, type 2 to select Modify VLAN.

The Modify VLAN menu is shown in Figure 191 on page 565.

4. Type 2 to select Change GARP VLAN.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter VLAN ID: [1 to 4096] ->

5. Enter the VID of the dynamic GVRP VLAN you want to convert into a

static VLAN. You can specify only one VLAN at a time.

The dynamic GVRP VLAN is changed to a static VLAN. To confirm
this, refer to “Displaying VLANs” on page 569.

6. Return to the Main Menu and type S to select Save Configuration
