Switchport Mode

• Trunk
• Access
• Dynamic desirable
• Dynamic Auto (Enables a port to become a trunk only)

2
• Dynamic Auto — Makes the Ethernet port willing to convert the
link to a trunk link. The port becomes a trunk port if the
neighboring port is set to trunk or dynamic desirable mode. This
is the default mode for some switchports.
• Dynamic Desirable — Makes the port actively attempt to
convert the link to a trunk link. The port becomes a trunk port if
the neighboring Ethernet port is set to trunk, dynamic
desirable or dynamic auto mode.

Switchport Mode

• Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP), which manages automatic trunk negotiation

• Switchport no negotiate (no DTP)

• Switchport mode access

• Switchport mode trunk

VLAN Creation

• Some can support up to 250 user-defined VLANs

• Default Etherent VLAN is VLAN1
• VTP adverts on VLAN 1
• Nomal range 1- 1001
• 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI
• VIDs 1 and 1002 to 1005 cannot be removed
• Extended Range 1006 – 4094 transparent mode

• SwitchA# configure terminal

• SwitchA(config)#vlan 10
• SwitchA(config-vlan)#name Accounts

VLAN
VLAN Port Assignment

• SwitchA# configure terminal

• SwitchA(config) interface range fastethernet 0/2
• SwitchA(config-if)# switchport access vlan 10
