Adding and Deleting Egress Ports

This procedure explains how to add and delete egress ports from the MAC
addresses in a MAC address-based VLAN.

Before adding egress ports to a MAC address, review the following:

ˆ

The egress ports of a MAC address-based VLAN are considered as a
community. Assigning a port to one address makes it an egress port
for all the addresses in the same VLAN.

ˆ

A MAC address must have at least one egress port. Otherwise, the
address is not considered a part of the VLAN and the PVID of the port
where the packet’s of the node are received determines VLAN
membership.

ˆ

A MAC address must be added to a VLAN before you can assign it an
egress port. For instructions, refer to “Adding and Deleting MAC
Addresses” on page 685.

For background information on egress ports in a MAC address-based
VLAN, refer to “Egress Ports” on page 676. To review all the guidelines to
creating and managing this type of VLAN, refer to “Guidelines” on
page 681.
