Enabling and Disabling Port GVRP Status

To enable or disable GVRP on the port, from the VLAN Port Configuration Menu, type g to toggle the port’s GVRP status.

KNote: For GVRP to be active, GVRP must be active for the system. See “Enabling and Disabling System GVRP” for instructions.

Configuring Inter-Switch Links

An inter-switch link (ISL) is a port that connects VLANs from two different switches; it’s the means to share VLAN information between switches on a network.

To configure a port as an ISL, you must do the following:

GAdd the ISL port to each VLAN that is shared by the two switches. This configures the port to share the VLAN traffic between the two switches.

GFor each VLAN, remove the ISL port from the VLAN’s set of untagged ports. By default, when you add a port to a VLAN, it will send tagged and untagged frames. This step configures the port to only send tagged frames.

GIn most cases, configure the ISL port to receive tagged frames. A port that is configured to receive only tagged frames will drop untagged frames.

Once the port is configured as an ISL it will pass frames from switch to switch, but it can acts as a gate that only passes frames associated with specific VLANs.

Adding an ISL Port to VLANs

You add a port to a VLAN in the VLAN Static Group Configuration Menu.

1 Type v in the Configuration Menu to access the VLAN Management Menu, then type s to access the VLAN Group Static Configuration Menu.

2 Use the commands on the bottom of the menu to select the VLAN you want.
