HP UX Auto Port Aggregation (APA) Software manual VLANs over APA Using HP Procurve Switches

D VLANs over APA Using HP Procurve Switches

For the September 2006 and later releases of HP APA for HP-UX 11i v2 (B.11.23.20), this appendix describes how to create VLANs over trunks and ports on an HP Procurve switch. For more information about creating VLANs on HP Procurve switches, see Procurve, Series 6400cl Switches, Series 5300xl Switches, Series 3400cl Switches, Advanced Traffic Management Guide at:

Configuring VLANs over Link Aggregates

Figure D-1 (page 113) shows a configuration with a VLAN with ID 333 over lan900 using ports lan3 and lan4, with lan3 and lan4 connected to ports F23 and F24 on the switch, respectively.

To configure the VLAN on the switch, complete the following steps:

1.Create the trunk on the switch side. Enter:

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl#

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl# configure

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# trunk F23,F24 Trk3 trunk HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# exit

F23 and F24 are configured to be a MANUAL trunk at trunk name Trk3.

2.Create the VLAN with ID 333 (vlan_333). Enter:

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl#

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl# configure

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# vlan 333 name vlan_333 HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# exit

3.Tag the trunk Trk3 with the VLAN IDs to be used, in this case the ID is 333. Enter:

HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# vlan 333 tagged Trk3 HP ProCurve Switch 5308xl(config)# exit
