Port-Based Virtual LANs
(VLANs) and GVRP
Changing the Number of VLANs Allowed on the Switch. By default,
the switch allows a maximum of 8 VLANs. You can specify any value from 1
to 30. (If GVRP is enabled, this setting incl udes any dynamic VLANs on the
switch.) As part of implementing a new value, you must execute a write
memory command (to save the new value to the startup-config file) and then
reboot the switch.
Syntax: max-vlans <1 .. 30>
For example, to reconfigure the switch to allow 10 VLANs:
Figure 14-15. Example of Command Sequence for Changing the Number of VLANs
Changing the Primary VLAN. In the factory-default configuration, the
default VLAN (DEFAULT_VLAN) is the primary VLAN. However, you can
designate any static VLAN on the switch as the primary VLAN. (For more on
the primary VLAN, see “Which VLAN Is Primary?” on page 14-7.) To view the
available VLANs and their respective VIDs, use show vlan.
Syntax: primary-vlan <vlan-id>
For example, to make VLAN 22 the primary VLAN:
HP4108(config)# primary-vlan 22
Note that you can
execute these
three steps at
another time.
