Example
console(config)# vlan protocol group 1
vlan protocol group add protocol
Use the vlan protocol group add protocol command in Global Configuration
mode to add a protocol to the protocol-based VLAN groups identified by
groupid. A group may have more than one protocol associated with it. Each
interface and protocol combination can be associated with one group only. If
adding a protocol to a group causes any conflicts with interfaces currently
associated with the group, this command fails and the protocol is not added
to the group.
To remove the protocol from the protocol-based VLAN group identified by
groupid, use the no form of this command.
Syntax
vlan protocol group add protocol group-id ethertype value
no vlan protocol group add protocol group-id ethertype value
• group-id — The protocol-based VLAN group ID, which is automatically
generated when you create a protocol-based VLAN group with the vlan
protocol group command. To see the group ID associated with the name
of a protocol group, use the show port protocol all command.
• ethertype value — The protocol you want to add. The ethertype value can
be any valid hexadecimal number in the range 0x0600 to 0xffff.
