Topology groups

Once you add a VLAN as a member of a topology group, all the Layer 2 protocol information on
the VLAN is deleted.

Configuring a topology group

To configure a topology group, enter commands such as the following.

TurboIron(config)#topology-group 2

TurboIron(config-topo-group-2)#master-vlan 2

TurboIron(config-topo-group-2)#member-vlan 3

TurboIron(config-topo-group-2)#member-vlan 4

TurboIron(config-topo-group-2)#member-vlan 5

TurboIron(config-topo-group-2)#member-group 2

These commands create topology group 2 and add the following:

Master VLAN 2

Member VLANs 2, 3, and 4

Member VLAN group 2

Syntax: [no] topology-group <group-id>

The <group-id> parameter specifies the topology group ID and can be from 1 – 256.

Syntax: [no] master-vlan <vlan-id>

This command adds the master VLAN. The VLAN must already be configured. Make sure all the
Layer 2 protocol settings in the VLAN are correct for your configuration before you add the VLAN to
the topology group. A topology group can have only one master VLAN.

NOTE

If you remove the master VLAN (by entering no master-vlan <vlan-id>), the software selects the new
master VLAN from member VLANs. For example, if you remove master VLAN 2 from the example
above, the CLI converts member VLAN 3 into the new master VLAN. The new master VLAN inherits
the Layer 2 protocol settings of the older master VLAN.

NOTE

If you add a new master VLAN to a topology group that already has a master VLAN, the new master
VLAN replaces the older master VLAN. All member VLANs and VLAN groups follow the Layer 2
protocol settings of the new master VLAN.

Syntax: [no] member-vlan <vlan-id>

The <vlan-id> parameter specifies a VLAN ID. The VLAN must already be configured.

Syntax: [no] member-group <num>

The <num> specifies a VLAN group ID. The VLAN group must already be configured.
