Assigning Static-Access Ports to a VLAN

You ca n assig n a s tatic- acc ess po rt t o a V LAN w it hout having VTP globa ll y prop aga te VLA N
configurat ion inf orm at ion ( VTP is di sabl ed). If y ou are a ssigni ng a p ort on a clu s ter mem be r s witc h to
a VLAN , first use th e rcommand privileged EXEC command to log in to the member switch.
Note If you assign an interface to a VLAN that does not exist, the new VLAN is created. (See the Creating
or Modi fyi ng an Et herne t V LAN se ctio n o n pa ge 14-8.)
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign a port to a VLAN in the VLAN
database:
To return an interface to its default configuration, use the default interface interface-id interfa ce
configurati on comm a nd.
This example shows how to configure Fast Ethernet interface 0/1 as an access port in VLAN 2:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet0/1
Switch(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter globa l configurati on mode
Step 2 int er fa ce interface-id Enter the interface to be added to the VLAN.
Step 3 switchport mode access Define the VLAN membership mode for the port (Layer 2 access
port).
Step 4 switchport access vlan vlan-id Assig n the por t to a VLAN . Valid VL AN IDs are 1 to 4094; do not
enter leading zeros.
Step 5 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6 show running-config interface interface-id Verify the VLAN membership mode of the interface.
Step 7 show interfaces interface-id switchport Verify y our e nt ries in th e Administrative Mode and the Access Mode
VLAN fields of the display.
Step 8 copy running-config startup-config (Optiona l) Save your entries in the co nfigurati on file.
