Port-Based Virtual LANs (VLANs) and GVRP

Port-Based Virtual LANs (Static VLANs)

Ports on one switch that you will use to extend the Management VLAN to ports on other HP Procurve switches (such as ports A1 and B2 or B4 and C2 in figure 11-21on page 11-28.).

Hubs dedicated to connecting management stations to the Management VLAN can also be included in the above topology. Note that any device connected to a hub in the Management VLAN will also have Management VLAN access.

4.Configure the Management VLAN on the selected switch ports.

5.Test the management VLAN from all of the management stations autho­ rized to use the Management VLAN, including any SNMP-based network management stations. Ensure that you include testing any Management VLAN links between switches.

N o t e

If you configure a Management VLAN on a switch by using a Telnet connection

 

through a port that is not in the Management VLAN, then you will lose

 

management contact with the switch if you log off your Telnet connection or

 

execute write memory and reboot the switch.

 

 

Configuration

Syntax: [ no ] management-vlan < vlan-id vlan-name> show vlan-info

Default: Disabled

For example, suppose you have already configured a VLAN named My_VLAN with a VID of 100 in a Series 5300XL switch. Now you want to configure the switch to do the following:

Use My_VLAN as a Management VLAN (tagged, in this case) to connect port A1 on switch “A” to a management station. (The management station includes a network interface card with 802.1Q tagged VLAN capability.)

Use port A2 to extend the Management VLAN to port B1 (which is already configured as a tagged member of My_VLAN) on an adjacent Series 5300XL switch.
