CLI Transition guide for Dell PowerConnect 5500 Series Switches Introduction The Dell™ PowerConnect™ 5500 Series Systems CLI Transition Guide White Paper outlines the changes in the CLI commands from the PowerConnect 54XX and 35XX software to the 4.x software release on the 5500 Series switches. Changes include syntax and functional updates as specified in the following sections.
CLI Transition guide for Dell PowerConnect 5500 Series Switches Enhanced functionality in Trunk mode On the Dell PowerConnect 5500, ports set to Trunk mode now carries all VLANs (by default) that are created and active on the device, and an inactive member of VLANs that were not created. The port PVID (native VLAN) can be configured to a VLAN that does not exist on the device. Untagged frames will be classified to the VLAN whose VID is configured as the port’s PVID.
