Cisco Systems N3KC3048TP1GE Adding Ports to a VLAN, active suspend, Procedure, Command or Action

Configuring VLANs

Adding Ports to a VLAN

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	switch# configure terminal	Enters configuration mode.
Step 2	switch(config)# vlan {vlan-id	Enters VLAN configuration submode. If the VLAN does not
	vlan-range}	exist, the system first creates the specified VLAN.
Step 3	switch(config-vlan)# name	Names the VLAN. You can enter up to 32 alphanumeric
	vlan-name	characters to name the VLAN. You cannot change the name of
		VLAN1 or the internally allocated VLANs. The default value is
		VLANxxxx where xxxx represent four numeric digits (including
		leading zeroes) equal to the VLAN ID number.
Step 4	switch(config-vlan)# state	Sets the state of the VLAN to active or suspend. While the VLAN
	{active suspend}	state is suspended, the ports associated with this VLAN are shut
		down, and that VLAN does not pass any traffic. The default state
		is active. You cannot suspend the state for the default VLAN or
		VLANs 1006 to 4094.
Step 5	switch(config-vlan)# no	(Optional)
	shutdown	Enables the VLAN. The default value is no shutdown (or
		enabled). You cannot shut down the default VLAN, VLAN1, or
		VLANs 1006 to 4094.

This example shows how to configure optional parameters for VLAN 5:

switch# configure terminal switch(config)# vlan 5 switch(config-vlan)# name accounting switch(config-vlan)# state active switch(config-vlan)# no shutdown

Adding Ports to a VLAN

After you have completed the configuration of a VLAN, assign ports to it. To add ports, perform this task:

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	switch# configure terminal	Enters configuration mode.
Step 2	switch(config)# interface {ethernet	Specifies the interface to configure, and enters the
	slot/port port-channelnumber}	interface configuration mode. The interface can be
		a physical Ethernet port or an EtherChannel.
