How to Define a MAC-Port-IP Address Binding Rule
To define a MAC-port-IP address binding rule, enter vlan followed by an existing VLAN ID then
binding mac-ip-port followed by a valid MAC address, IP address, and a slot/port designation. For
example, the following command defines a MAC-port-IP binding rule for VLAN 255:
-> vlan 255 binding mac-ip-port 00:00:da:59:0c:12 21.0.0.10 2/3
In this example, frames received on mobile port 2/3 must contain a source MAC address of
00:00:da:59:0c:12 and a source IP address of 21.0.0.10 to qualify for dynamic assignment to VLAN 255.
Use the no form of the vlan binding mac-ip-port command to remove a MAC-port-IP binding rule. Note
that it is only necessary to enter the rule’s MAC address parameter value to identify which rule to remove.
-> vlan 255 no binding mac-ip-port 00:00:da:59:0c:12
Note that this binding rule type is also supported on AVLANs. See Chapter 21, “Configuring Authenti-
cated VLANs,” for more information.
How to Define a MAC-Port-Protocol Binding Rule
To define a MAC-port-protocol binding rule, enter vlan followed by an existing VLAN ID then
binding mac-port-protocol followed by a valid MAC address, a slot/port designation and a protocol
type. For example, the following commands define a MAC-port-protocol binding rule for VLAN 355 and
VLAN 455:
-> vlan 355 binding mac-port-protocol 00:00:da:59:0c:12 3/1 ip-e2
-> vlan 455 binding mac-port-protocol 00:00:20:11:4a:29 4/1 dsapssap 04/04
The first example command specifies that frames received on mobile port 3/1 must contain a source MAC
address of 00:00:da:59:0c:12 and an IP protocol type to qualify for dynamic assignment to VLAN 355.
The second command specifies that frames received on mobile port 4/1 must contain a source MAC
address of 00:00:20:11:4a:29 and a DSAP/SSAP protocol value of 04/04 to qualify for dynamic assign-
ment to VLAN 455.
The following table lists command keywords for specifying a protocol type:
Note that specifying a SNAP protocol type restricts classification of mobile port traffic to the ethertype
value found in the IEEE 802.2 SNAP LLC frame header.
Use the no form of the vlan binding mac-port-protocol command to remove a MAC-port-protocol bind-
ing rule. Note that it is only necessary to enter the rule’s MAC address and protocol parameter values to
identify which rule to remove.
-> vlan 455 no binding mac-port-protocol 00:00:20:11:4a:29 dsapssap 04/04
Note that this binding rule type is also supported on AVLANs. See Chapter 21, “Configuring Authenti-
cated VLANs,” for more information.
