Administrator's Guide v4.1.1 Manual
• Default VLAN 1 is not implicitly created in this mode.
• Native VLAN commands that are applicable in default-VLAN trunk mode are not supported in this
mode.
• Native VLAN commands that are applicable in this mode are not supported in default-VLAN trunk
mode.
Because of the different mode behaviors, the user must be aware of the following:
• A port in default-VLAN trunk mode cannot use the new classifications. For example, an AMPP profile
port operates in default-VLAN trunk mode and therefore the new classifications are not supported in
this case.
• When a port is configured in this mode there is no assumption that VLAN 1 exists. The default VLAN
1 must be configured explicitly. For example, PVST VLAN 1 is not enabled on an interface unless
that VLAN is configured explicitly.
The following commands are used to support different native VLAN configurations:
• switchport mode trunk-no-default-native
• [no] switchport trunk native-vlan-untaggedvid
• [no] switchport native-vlan-xtagged vid [ctag cvid] egress [tagged | untagged | any]
The service and transport VF native VLAN classifications and the role of the respective commands are
summarized below.

The following configuration rules apply in no-default-native-VLAN trunk mode.
Rules for the switchport trunk-no-default-native command:
• There is no automatic native VLAN configuration.
‐ VLAN 1 is not created automatically when the port is configured in this mode.
‐ VLAN 1 is not a default VLAN. It is just another C-TAG that is available for classification.
‐ The user can explicitly create VLAN 1 to achieve a default-VLAN trunk mode configuration,
by using the switchport trunk allow vlan add vid command.
• An untagged or unclassified frame is discarded by default.
• All switchport configurations except the following native VLAN commands in default-VLAN trunk
mode continue to be supported:
