Configuring protocol-based VLANs
7
You must specify a VLAN ID that is not already in use. For example, if VLAN 10 exists, do not use
“10” as the new VLAN ID for the default VLAN. VLAN IDs are from 1 – 4090. The VLAN ID range
above 4090 has been reserved for current and future features for internal control purposes.
Configuring protocol-based VLANs
Once port-based VLANs are created, you can further segment the broadcast domains by creating
protocol-based VLANs, based on Layer 3 protocols. Use the general procedure below for creating
protocol-based VLANs.
1. Create the port-based VLAN that contains the interface that you want to segment using Layer 3
protocols.
Brocade(config)# vlan 2
Brocade(config-vlan-2)# untag e 1/9 to 1/16
Brocade(config-vlan-2)# tagged e 1/1 to 1/8
2. Under the VLAN configuration level, define the Layer 3 protocol you want to use to segment
packets that go through the ports assigned to the port-based VLAN.
Brocade(config-vlan-2)# ipv6-proto name Blue
Syntax: [no] ip-proto | ipv6-proto | ipx-proto | atalk-proto | other-proto name
protocol-vlan-name
Enter:
• ip-proto to create a IP protocol VLAN.
• ipv6-proto to create a IPv6 protocol VLAN.
• ipx-proto to create a IPX protocol VLAN.
• atalk-proto to create an Appletalk protocol VLAN.
• other-proto to create a protocol VLAN for protocols other than an IP protocol, IPv6, IPX, or
Appletalk protocol.
Enter name vlan-name if you want to assign a name to the protocol-based VLAN. Enter up to 32
characters for name.
Use the no form of the command to remove the protocol-based VLAN.
3. Assign or exclude specific ports to the protocol-based VLAN.
Brocade(config-vlan-group-ipv6-proto)# static e 1/1 e 1/24
Brocade(config-vlan-group-ipv6-proto)# exclude e 1/2 to 1/4
Syntax: [no] static | exclude ethernet slot-number/port-number [to slot-number/port-number]
The static ethernet slot-number/port-number [to slot-number/port-number] parameter adds
the specified ports within the port-based VLAN as static ports to the protocol-based VLAN.
Packets of the specified protocol will be forwarded on these ports.
The exclude ethernet slot-number/port-number [to slot-number/port-number] parameter
excludes the specified ports from the protocol-based VLAN. Packets of the specified protocol
will be dropped if received on these ports.
