86CHAPTER 5: CONFIGURING AND MANAGING PORTS AND VLANS

To configure a port group named server1 containing ports 1 through 5 and enable the link, type the following command:

WX1200# set port-group name server1 1-5 mode on success: change accepted.

After you configure a port group, you can use the port group name with commands that change Layer 2 configuration parameters to apply configuration changes to all ports in the port group. For example, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and VLAN membership changes affect the entire port group instead of individual ports. When you make Layer 2 configuration changes, you can use a port group name in place of the port list. Ethernet port statistics continue to apply to individual ports, not to port groups.

To configure a port group named server2 containing ports 2 and 5 and add the ports to the default VLAN, type the following commands:

WX1200# set port-group name server2 2,5 mode on success: change accepted.

WX1200# set vlan default port server2 success: change accepted.

To verify the configuration change, type the following command:

WX1200# display vlan config

The web-aaa VLAN is used by the WebAAA feature and is automatically configured by MSS.

To indicate that the ports are configured as a port group, the display vlan config output lists the port group name instead of the individual port numbers.

Removing a Port Group

To remove a port group, use the following command:
