Configuring VLANs

Configuration Guidelines

•You cannot dynamically add a port to a protocol VLAN if the port has any routing configuration parameters. For example, the port cannot have a virtual interface, IP sub-net address, IPX network address, or AppleTalk network address configured on it.

•Once you dynamically add a port to a protocol VLAN, you cannot configure routing parameters on the port.

•Dynamic VLAN ports are not required or supported on AppleTalk cable VLANs.

Configuring an IP, IPX, or AppleTalk Protocol VLAN with Dynamic Ports

To configure an IP, IPX, or AppleTalk protocol VLAN with dynamic ports, use one of the following methods.

USING THE CLI

To configure port-based VLAN 10, then configure an IP protocol VLAN within the port-based VLAN with dynamic ports, enter the following commands such as the following:

HP9300(config)# vlan 10 by port HP9300(config-vlan-10)# untag ethernet 1/1 to 1/6 added untagged port ethe 1/1 to 1/6 to port-vlan 30. HP9300(config-vlan-10)# ip-proto name IP_Prot_VLAN HP9300(config-vlan-10)# dynamic

HP9300(config)# write memory

Syntax: vlan <vlan-id> by port [name <string>]

Syntax: untagged ethernet <portnum> to <portnum>

Or

Syntax: untagged ethernet <portnum> ethernet <portnum>

NOTE: Use the first untagged command for adding a range of ports. Use the second command for adding separate ports (not in a range).

Syntax: ip-proto [name <string>]

Syntax: ipx-proto [name <string>]

Syntax: appletalk-cable-vlan <num> [name <string>]

Syntax: dynamic

The procedure is similar for IPX and AppleTalk protocol VLANs. Enter ipx-protoor atalk-protoinstead of

ip-proto.

Configuring an IP Sub-Net VLAN with Dynamic Ports

To configure an IP sub-net VLAN with dynamic ports, use one of the following methods.

USING THE CLI

To configure port-based VLAN 10, then configure an IP sub-net VLAN within the port-based VLAN with dynamic ports, enter commands such as the following:

HP9300(config)# vlan 10 by port name IP_VLAN HP9300(config-vlan-10)# untag ethernet 1/1 to 1/6 added untagged port ethe 1/1 to 1/6 to port-vlan 10. HP9300(config-vlan-10)# ip-subnet 1.1.1.0/24 name Mktg-LAN
