Configuring Protocol-based VLANs

34-21

34

protocol - Protocol type. The only option for the llc-other frame type is

ipx_raw. The options for all other frames types include: ip, ipv6, arp, rarp,
and user-defined (0801-FFFF hexadecimal).

Default Setting

No protocol groups are configured.

Command Mode

Global Configuration

Example
The following creates protocol group 1, and specifies Ethernet frames with IP and
ARP protocol types:

protocol-vlan protocol-group (Configuring Interfaces)

This command maps a protocol group to a VLAN for the current interface. Use the
no form to remove the protocol mapping for this interface.

Syntax

protocol-vlan protocol-group group-id vlan vlan-id
no protocol-vlan protocol-group group-id vlan

group-id - Group identifier of this protocol group. (Range: 1-2147483647)
vlan-id - VLAN to which matching protocol traffic is forwarded.

(Range: 1-4093)

Default Setting

No protocol groups are mapped for any interface.

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

Command Usage

• When creating a protocol-based VLAN, only assign interfaces via this

command. If you assign interfaces using any of the other VLAN commands
(such as vlan on page 34-6), these interfaces will admit traffic of any protocol
type into the associated VLAN.

• When a frame enters a port that has been assigned to a protocol VLAN, it is

processed in the following manner:
- If the frame is tagged, it will be processed according to the standard rules

applied to tagged frames.

- If the frame is untagged and the protocol type matches, the frame is

forwarded to the appropriate VLAN.

Console(config)#protocol-vlan protocol-group 1 add frame-type ethernet
protocol-type ip
Console(config)#protocol-vlan protocol-group 1 add frame-type ethernet
protocol-type arp
Console(config)#
