Chapter 13 Configuring VLANs
Displaying VLANs
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to release a VLAN ID that is assigned to an
internal VLAN and to create an extended-range VLAN with that ID:
Displaying VLANs
Use the
show vlan
privileged EXEC command to display a list of all VLANs on the switch, including
extended-range VLANs. The display includes VLAN status, ports, and configuration information.
lists the commands for monitoring VLANs.
For more details about the show command options and explanations of output fields, see the command
reference for this release.
Command
Purpose
Step 1
show vlan internal usage
Display the VLAN IDs being used internally by the switch. If the VLAN
ID that you want to use is an internal VLAN, the display shows the routed
port that is using the VLAN ID. Enter that port number in Step 3.
Step 2
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 3
interface
interface-id
Specify the interface ID for the routed port that is using the VLAN ID,
and enter interface configuration mode.
Step 4
shutdown
Shut down the port to free the internal VLAN ID.
Step 5
exit
Return to global configuration mode.
Step 6
vtp mode transparent
Set the VTP mode to transparent for creating extended-range VLANs.
Note
This step is not required for VTP version 3.
Step 7
vlan
vlan-id
Enter the new extended-range VLAN ID, and enter VLAN configuration
mode.
Step 8
exit
Exit from VLAN configuration mode, and return to global configuration
mode.
Step 9
interface
interface-id
Specify the interface ID for the routed port that you shut down in Step 4,
and enter interface configuration mode.
Step 10
no shutdown
Re-enable the routed port. It will be assigned a new internal VLAN ID.
Step 11
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 12
copy running-config startup config
Save your entries in the switch startup configuration file. To save an
extended-range VLAN configuration, you need to save the VTP
transparent mode configuration and the extended-range VLAN
configuration in the switch startup configuration file. Otherwise, if the
switch resets, it will default to VTP server mode, and the extended-range
VLAN IDs will not be saved.
