This feature is supported on all the directly connected Ethernet and EtherChannel interfaces of the Cisco
Nexus 3000 Series switch.
You can enable the vlan dot1q tag native command by issuing the command in the global configuration
mode.
Note
Configuring Access and Trunk Interfaces
Configuring a LAN Interface as an Ethernet Access Port
You can configure an Ethernet interface as an access port. An access port transmits packets on only one,
untagged VLAN. You specify which VLAN traffic that the interface carries. If you do not specify a VLAN
for an access port, the interface carries traffic only on the default VLAN. The default VLAN is VLAN1.
The VLAN must exist before you can specify that VLAN as an access VLAN. The system shuts down an
access port that is assigned to an access VLAN that does not exist.
Procedure
PurposeCommand or Action
Enters configuration mode.switch# configure terminal
Step 1
Specifies an interface to configure, and enters interface
configuration mode.
switch(config)# interface {{type
slot/port} | {port-channel
number}}
Step 2
Sets the interface as a nontrunking nontagged single-VLAN
Ethernet interface. An access port can carry traffic in one
switch(config-if)# switchport
mode {access | trunk}
Step 3
VLAN only. By default, an access port carries traffic for
VLAN1; to set the access port to carry traffic for a different
VLAN, use the switchport access vlan command.
Specifies the VLAN for which this access port will carry
traffic. If you do not enter this command, the access port
switch(config-if)# switchport
access vlan vlan-id
Step 4
carries traffic on VLAN1 only; use this command to change
the VLAN for which the access port carries traffic.
This example shows how to set an interface as an Ethernet access port that carries traffic for a specific VLAN
only:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/10
switch(config-if)# switchport mode access
switch(config-if)# switchport access vlan 5
