Table 2-6. VLAN Binding Options

 

 

 

Option

 

Definition

 

 

 

Static

 

Assigns VLAN membership manually.

 

 

 

Bind to All

 

Binds this port to all VLANs known to the

 

 

switch. This is an appropriate mode for switch-

 

 

to-switch connections.

 

 

Note: When a tagged IEEE 802.1Q packet

 

 

arrives on a port that is set to bind to all

 

 

and the VLAN does not exist on the

 

 

switch, the packet is forwarded on to the

 

 

VLAN assigned to the port default VLAN

 

 

for that port. To prevent unintended

 

 

forwarding of unknown VLAN traffic to

 

 

the port’s default VLAN, configure the

 

 

port default VLAN to Discard. The

 

 

automatic VLAN creation feature does

 

 

not work if the port’s default VLAN is

 

 

the discard VLAN, because the switch

 

 

does not learn for this VLAN.

 

 

Bind to Received

Binds this port to any VLAN it receives traffic

 

 

from.

 

 

Note: If Automatic VLAN Creation is enabled,

 

 

the port binds to previously unknown

 

 

VLANs, and a VLAN entry is added to

 

 

the switch VLAN table. If Automatic

 

 

VLAN Creation is disabled, the port does

 

 

not bind to any VLAN unknown to the

 

 

switch.

 

 

 

8.From the Automatic VLAN Creation pull-down menu, select Enable to automatically create a VLAN each time the port receives a frame from an unknown VLAN.

9.From the VTP Snooping pull-down menu, select Enable or Disable. When enabled, the switch port participates in the Cisco VTP protocol and allows VTP Snooping to run a a reduced number of trunk port. The default value is Enable.

10.From the Allow Learning pull-down menu, select Disable to stop the port’s learning of new addresses. This feature can be useful for security. Selecting Enable allows the port to learn new addresses.
