set vlan dynamicegress

Example

This example shows how to display the dynamic egress status for VLANs 50‐55:

C3(rw)->show vlan dynamicegress 50-55

VLAN 50 is disabled

VLAN 51 is disabled

VLAN 52 is disabled

VLAN 53 is enabled

VLAN 54 is enabled

VLAN 55 is enabled

set vlan dynamicegress

Use this command to administratively set the dynamic egress status for one or more VLANs.

Syntax

set vlan dynamicegress vlan-list{enable disable}

Parameters

vlan‐list

Specifies the VLANs by ID to enable or disable dynamic egress.

enable disable Enables or disables dynamic egress.

Defaults

None.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

If dynamic egress is enabled for a particular VLAN, when a port receives a frame tagged with that VLAN’s ID, the switch will add the receiving port to that VLAN’s egress list. Dynamic egress is disabled on the SecureStack C3 by default.

For example, assume you have 20 AppleTalk users on your network who are mobile users (that is, use different ports every day), but you want to keep the AppleTalk traffic isolated in its own VLAN. You can create an AppleTalk VLAN with a VLAN ID of 55 with a classification rule that all AppleTalk traffic gets tagged with VLAN ID 55. Then, you enable dynamic egress for VLAN 55. Now, when an AppleTalk user plugs into port ge.3.5 and sends an AppleTalk packet, the switch will tag the packet to VLAN 55 and also add port ge.3.5 to VLAN 55’s egress list, which allows the AppleTalk user to receive AppleTalk traffic.

Example

This example shows how to enable dynamic egress on VLAN 55:

C3(rw)->set vlan dynamicegress 55 enable
