form to restore the default.
Syntax
switchport mode {trunk | hybrid}

• trunk - Specifies a port as an end-point for a VLAN trunk. A trunk is a direct
link between two switches, so the port transmits tagged frames that identify
the source VLAN. However, note that frames belonging to the port’s default
VLAN (i.e., associated with the PVID) are sent untagged.
• hybrid - Specifies a hybrid VLAN interface. The port may transmit tagged
or untagged frames.
Default Setting
All ports are in hybrid mode with the PVID set to VLAN 1.
Command Mode
