Configuring protocol-based VLAN classifier rules

NOTE

Multiple VLAN classifier rules can be applied per interface provided the resulting VLAN IDs are unique for the different rules.

802.1Q protocol-based VLANs apply only to untagged frames, or frames with priority tagging.

With both Ethernet-II and 802.2 SNAP encapsulated frames, the following protocol types are supported:

•Ethernet hexadecimal (0x0000 through 0xffff)

•Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

•Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)

•FCoE Initialization Protocol (FIP)

•IP version 6 (IPv6)

NOTE

For complete information on all available VLAN classifier rule options, see the Converged Enhanced Ethernet Command Reference.

Configuring a VLAN classifier rule

To configure a protocol-based VLAN classifier rule, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.

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

2.Enter the vlan classifier rule command to configure a protocol-based VLAN classifier rule.

switch(config)#vlan classifier rule 1 proto fcoe encap ethv2

To configure a MAC address-based VLAN classifier rule, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.

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

2.Enter the vlan classifier rule command to configure a MAC address-based VLAN classifier rule.

switch(config)#vlan classifier rule 5 mac 0008.744c.7fid

VLAN classifier groups (1 through 16) can contain any number of VLAN classifier rules.

To configure a VLAN classifier group and remove a VLAN classifier rule, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.

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

2.Specify a VLAN classifier group and delete a rule.

switch(config)#vlan classifier group 1 delete rule 1
