Configuring 802.1Q on 10/100 Ethernet Ports

Use the

cas

command to assign

802.1Q

groups to 10/100 ports. To use this command, follow

the steps below.

1. Enter

cas

at the system prompt, as shown:

cas <slot>/<port>

where

<slot>

is the slot of the module, and

<port>

is the port number that is to be added

to the group. For example, to add port 3 on slot 5, you would enter:

cas 5/3

2. If you have a legacy 10/100 board, the following screen displays:

Slot 3 Port 5 Ethernet 802.1Q Service
1) Description

:

2) Group ID

:

3) Tag

:

4) Priority

:

5) Mode

If you have a Kodiak 10/100 board, the following screen displays:

2) Group ID

:

3) Tag

:

5) Mode

Multiple Spanning Tree (3)

:

You can modify the parameters by entering the line number, an equal sign, and the value
for the parameter. For example, to change the

Group ID

to

5

, you would enter

2

(the line

number for

Group ID

), an equal sign (

=

), and a

5

(the group number), as shown:

2=5

3. Remember to save your changes by entering

save

at the system prompt when you have

finished with the configuration.

Important Notes

Because

802.1Q

support over OmniChannel is

supported only in

Multiple Spanning Tree

mode on

Kodiak

10/100

Ethernet boards, the

Mode

screen option

is not configurable for this feature.

For

802.1Q

support over OmniChannel, you must first

create an OmniChannel before creating

802.1Q groups

.

See Chapter 15, “Managing Ethernet Modules” for
information about OmniChannel.
