Static Virtual LANs (VLANs)
Port-Based Virtual LANs (Static VLANs)
Changing the Number of VLANs Allowed on the Switch. By default,
the switch allows a maximum of 8 VLANs. You can specify any value from 1
to the upper limit for the switch. If GVRP is enabled, this setting includes any
dynamic VLANs on the switch. As part of implementing a new value, you must
execute a write memory command (to save the new value to the startup-config
file) and then reboot the switch.
Syntax: max-vlans <1... 64>
For example, to reconfigure the switch to allow 10 VLANs:
Figure 2-19. Example of Command Sequence for Changing the Number of VLANs
Changing the Primary VLAN. In the factory-default configuration, the
default VLAN (DEFAULT_VLAN) is the primary VLAN. However, you can
designate any static VLAN on the switch as the primary VLAN. (For more on
the primary VLAN, see “The Primary VLAN” on page 2-6.) To view the available
VLANs and their respective VIDs, use show vlans.
Syntax: primary-vlans <vlan-id>
For example, to make VLAN 22 the primary VLAN:
ProCurve(config)# primary-vlan 22
Note that you can
execute these
three steps at
another time.
