Setting a port to trunk or access (for egress port)
As traffic from an interface is forwarded out of the unit, it determines if the destination
port requires the frames to be tagged or untagged.
- A trunk port should use tagged frame formats for outgoing frames and carries the
traffic of multiple VLANs over a single link. But if a packet has a VLANid that is the
same as the outgoing port PVID, the packet is sent untagged.
- An access port should use untagged frame formats for outgoing frames. Frames are
sent to the port without a tag. An access port strips the tag from tagged frames and sends
it.
By default, all ports are the access ports. To set a specific port to trunk or access, use the
following command.
COMMAND
(conf)# ethsw trunk enable|disable <port> [<port> ...]
Parameters
enable: sets as the trunk port
