Chapter 13 Configuring VLANs
Configuring Normal-Range VLANs
You use the interface configuration mode to define the port membership mode and to add and remove
ports from VLANs. The results of these commands are written to the running-configuration file, and you
can display the file by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.
You can set these parameters when you create a new normal-range VLAN or modify an existing VLAN
in the VLAN database:
• VLAN ID
• VLAN name
• VLAN type (Ethernet, Fiber Distributed Data Interface [FDDI], FDDI network entity title [NET],
TrBRF, or TrCRF, Token Ring, Token Ring-Net)
• VLAN state (active or suspended)
• Maximum transmission unit (MTU) for the VLAN
• Security Association Identifier (SAID)
• Bridge identification number for TrBRF VLANs
• Ring number for FDDI and TrCRF VLANs
• Parent VLAN number for TrCRF VLANs
• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) type for TrCRF VLANs
• VLAN number to use when translating from one VLAN type to another
Note This section does not provide configuration details for most of these parameters. For complete
information on the commands and parameters that control VLAN configuration, see the command
reference for this release.
These sections contain normal-range VLAN configuration information:
• Token Ring VLANs, page 13-5
• Normal-Range VLAN Configuration Guidelines, page 13-6
• Configuring Normal-Range VLANs, page 13-6
• Default Ethernet VLAN Configuration, page 13-7
• Creating or Modifying an Ethernet VLAN, page 13-8
• Deleting a VLAN, page 13-9
• Assigning Static-Access Ports to a VLAN, page 13-9
Token Ring VLANs
Although the switch does not support Token Ring connections, a remote device such as a Catalyst 5000
series switch with Token Ring connections could be managed from one of the supported switches.
Switches running VTP Version 2 advertise information about these Token Ring VLANs:
• Token Ring TrBRF VLANs
• Token Ring TrCRF VLANs
For more information on configuring Token Ring VLANs, see the Catalyst 5000 Series Software
Configuration Guide.
