Converting a Dynamic VLAN to a Static VLAN.

If GVRP is running on

the switch and a port dynamically joins a VLAN, you can use the next
command to convert the dynamic VLAN to a static VLAN. (For GVRP and
dynamic VLAN operation, see “GVRP” on page 14-30.) This is necessary if you
want to make the VLAN permanent. After you convert a dynamic VLAN to
static, you must configure the switch’s per-port participation in the VLAN in
the same way that you would for any static VLAN.

Syntax:

static-vlan <vlan-id>

(Use show vlan to list current VIDs.)

For example, suppose a dynamic VLAN with a VID of 125 exists on the switch.
The following command converts the VLAN to a static VLAN.

HP4108(config)# static-vlan 125

Configuring Static VLAN Name and Per-Port Settings.

The

vlan <vlan-

id> command, used with the options listed below, changes the name of an
existing static VLAN and changes the per-port VLAN membership settings.

N o t e

You can use these options from the configuration level by beginning the
command with

vlan <vlan-id>, or from the context level of the specific VLAN.

Syntax:

name <vlan-name>

Changes the name of the existing static
VLAN. (Avoid spaces and the following
characters in the <

vlan-name> entry: 2, #, $, ^,

&, *, (, and ).)

[no] tagged <port-list>

Configures the indicated port(s) as
Tagged for the specified VLAN. The

no” version sets the port(s) to

either

No or (if GVRP is enabled) to Auto.

[no] untagged <port-list>Configures the indicated port(s) as

Untagged for the specified VLAN. The

no” version sets the port(s) to

either

No or (if GVRP is enabled) to Auto.

[no] forbid <port-list>

Configures the indicated port(s) as
“forbidden” to participate in the
designated VLAN. The “

no” version sets

the port(s) to either

No or (if GVRP is

enabled) to

Auto.

auto <port-list>

Available if GVRP is enabled on the
switch. Returns the per-port settings
for the specified VLAN to

Auto

operation. Note that

Auto is the default

per-port setting for a static VLAN if
GVRP is runing on the switch.
