4. Enter the switchport command to place the CEE interface into trunk mode.

switch(conf-if-te-0/10)#switchport mode trunk none

Configuring an interface port as a converged interface

Each CEE interface port supports admission policies based on whether the frames are untagged or tagged. Converged mode admits both tagged and untagged frames. Any tagged frames coming with a VLAN tag equal to the configured native VLAN are dropped.

To configure the interface as converged interface, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.

1.Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.

2.Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number.

Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1.

switch(config)#interface tengigabitethernet 0/1

3.Enter the no shutdown command to enable the CEE interface.

4.Enter the switchport command to set the tagged VLAN on the interface to 100.

switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#switchport converged allowed vlan add 100

Disabling a VLAN on a converged interface

To disable a VLAN on a converged interface, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.

1.Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.

2.Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number.

Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/10.

switch(config)#interface tengigabitethernet 0/10

3.Enter the no shutdown command to enable the CEE interface.

4.Enter the switchport command to place the CEE interface into converged mode.

switch(conf-if-te-0/10)#switchport mode converged none

Configuring protocol-based VLAN classifier rules

You can configure VLAN classifier rules to define specific rules for classifying frames to selected VLANs based on protocol and MAC addresses. Sets of rules can be grouped into VLAN classifier groups (see “Creating a VLAN classifier group and adding rules” on page 40).

VLAN classifier rules (1 through 256) are a set of configurable rules that reside in one of these categories:

•802.1Q protocol-based classifier rules

•Source MAC address-based classifier rules

•Encapsulated Ethernet classifier rules
