Reference Guide
switchport mode
Places an interface in L2 access or trunk mode.
Syntax
switchport mode {access | trunk}
Parameters
• access — Enables L2 switching of untagged frames on a single VLAN.
• trunk — Enables L2 switching of untagged frames on the access VLAN, and of tagged frames on the VLANs
specied with the
switchport trunk allowed vlan command.
Default
access
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage Information
• If an IP address is assigned to an interface, you cannot use this command to enable L2 switching — you must
rst remove the IP address.
• The access parameter automatically adds an interface to default VLAN 1 to transmit untagged trac. Use the
switchport access vlan command to change the access VLAN assignment.
•
The trunk parameter congures an interface to transmit tagged VLAN trac. You must manually congure
VLAN membership for a trunk port with the switchport trunk allowed vlan command.
• Use the no switchport command to remove all L2 conguration when you congure an interface in L3
mode.
• Use the no switchport mode command to restore a trunk port on an interface to L2 access mode on
VLAN 1.
Example
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/7)# switchport mode access
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
switchport trunk allowed vlan
Congures the tagged VLAN trac that a L2 trunk interface can carry. An L2 trunk port has no tagged VLAN membership and does not
transmit tagged trac.
Syntax
switchport trunk allowed vlan vlan-id-list
Parameters vlan-id-list — Enter the VLAN numbers of the tagged trac that the L2 trunk port can carry. Comma-
separated and hyphenated VLAN number ranges are supported.
Default None
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage Information Use the no version of this command to remove the conguration.
Example
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 1000
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# no switchport trunk allowed vlan 1000
