Defining a Port Policy

After you enter the Administrative Status, the following menu displays:
Select rule type:
1. Port Rule
2. MAC Address Rule
21) MAC Address Range Rule
3. Protocol Rule
4. Network Address Rule
5. User Defined Rule
6. Binding Rule
7. DHCP PORT Rule
8. DHCP MAC Rule
81) DHCP MAC Range Rule
Enter rule type (1):
1. Press <Return>. If this is a VLAN in a non-mobile Group refer to Chapter 19 for a detailed
explanation of the two ways port policies may be configured.
♦ Note ♦
As of the current release, the MAC Address Range Rule
and DHCP MAC Range are not supported.
2. The following prompt displays:
Set Rule Admin Status to ((e)nable/(d)isable):
Indicate whether or not you want to enable the Administrative Status for this rule. Type e
to enable or d to disable. If you enable the rule, the switch will use it to determine
membership of devices. If you disable the rule, then the switch will not use this rule, but
the parameters you set up will be saved. The Admin Status for a Policy is different from
the Admin Status for the VLAN as it controls only to this specific rule within this specific
VLAN. You can enable or disable the rule at a later time using the modatvl command.
3. The following prompt displays:
Enter the list of ports in Slot/Int/Service/Instance format:
Enter the physical ports that you want included in this VLAN. You may enter multiple
ports at a time. Use the <slot>/<port> format. For example, to include port 7 from the
module in slot 2, you would enter 2/7. (The service and instance numbers are not neces-
sary for specifying physical LAN ports. They are only necessary when specifying logical
ports used over ATM, FDDI, and Frame Relay.)
4. The following prompt displays:
Configure more rules for this vlan (y/n):
You can set up multiple rules for the same VLAN. Enter a Y here if you want to set up
more rules in addition to the port rule specified here. If you enter Y, you will be
prompted for the next rule that you want to set up on this VLAN. Follow the directions in
the appropriate section to configure that rule.
If you enter N, you will receive a message, similar to the one below, indicating that the
VLAN was set up.
VLAN 1:2 created successfully
You are done setting up rules.
