Setting a Tagged Port

set-tag-outbound-mode

The set-tag-outbound-modecommand can be used to enable or disable VLAN tagging to port/s on a network on which all nodes support the IEEE 802.1Q standard or a comparably capable network. Do not enable a port connected to a network on which there are any nodes that do not support the IEEE 802.1q standard.

set-tag-outbound-mode {runnvramall} <port-list> {enabledisable} [arg #0] database type - either {runnvramall}

[arg #1] ports - ports list in format: <dport>

[arg #2] VLAN state: either {disableenable}

Example

SYS_console>set-tag-outbound-mode run 5 enable

Set run VLAN Tag awareness – OK

SYS_console>

Removing a Tagged Port

To remove a previously declared tagged port you have to use the same command.

set-tag-outbound-mode {runnvram all}<port-list>{enabledisable} [arg #0] database type - either {runnvramall}

[arg #1] ports - ports list in format: S1.D1-S2.D2-...-Sn.Dn

[arg #2] VLAN state: either {disableenable}

Example

SYS_console>set-tag-outbound-mode run 5.8 disable

Set run VLAN Tag awareness – OK

SYS_console>

Server Port

A server port is a shared port among VLANs. This port is seen from every VLAN it belongs to, VLANS can see it but they cannot use it as a third party to communicate.

Creating a Server Port

new-srvr-port

The new-srvr-portcommand defines a “server port” as a VLAN with one port (server) and a dedicated tag. The user then defines the “server port” as a member of all the tag-based VLANs from which access is desired. Access to the “server port” is available only to ports of VLANs in which the “server port” is a member. This is done in order to share a common resource, such as a network server, over the defined tag VLANs.
