Step 3.2: Configuring the second Cisco Systems IGESM (CIGESM2)
Table 7-17 shows the step-by-step instructions used to configure CIGESM2, showing both
CLI and CMS commands.
Table 7-17 Configuring CIGESM2
Important: The current version of CMS supported on the Cisco Systems IGESM has a
limitation in its ability to completely control VLANs being placed on a given trunk: It always
includes VLAN 1 and 1001-1005, even if you do not set them as allowed. Because of this
limitation, its use might not be appropriate for production configuration when trying to
control VLANs allowed on a given trunk.
