7.2 VLAN Port Membership Modes
Assign a switchport to a VLAN by designating a membership mode. The membership mode determines the type of
traffic the port carries and the number of VLANs that belong to a specific port. The following is a list of the
membership modes:
• Static Access
• Trunk (IEEE 802.1Q)
7.2.1 Static Access
A static-access port can belong to one VLAN and is manually assigned to that VLAN. Use the following commands,
beginning in config mode, to assign a static-access port to a VLAN:
Command Purpose
interface IFNAME
Enter the interface name to access the interface configuration mode.
Switchport mode access
This command designates the interface as static-access mode.
Switchport access vlan vid
This command assigns the interface to the VLAN VID.
Use the no form of this command to reset the static-access VLAN to
default VID 1.
End
Return to Enable mode.
7.2.2 Trunk (IEEE 802.1q)
By default, a trunk port is a member of all VLANs. Membership can be limited by configuring a VLAN Allowed List.
Use the following commands, beginning in config mode, to assign an IEEE 802.1q trunk port:
Command Purpose
interface IFNAME
Enter the interface name to access the interface configuration mode.
switchport mode trunk
This command designates the interface as IEEE 802.1q trunk-access
mode.
Use the no form of this command to reset to the default of static-
access mode.
switchport trunk native vlan vid This command assigns the native VLAN for the trunk port. Use the no
form of this command to reset the native VLAN to VID 1.
Switch(config-if-IFNAME)# end
Return to Enable mode.
