portmode hybrid
c e s
Set a physical port or port-channel to accept both tagged and untagged frames. A port configured this
way is identified as a hybrid port in report displays.
Syntax
portmode hybrid
To return a port to accept either tagged or untagged frames (non-hybrid), use the no portmode hybrid
command.
Defaults
non-hybrid

Example 1
(Configuration)
FTOS(conf)#interface gi 7/0
FTOS(conf-if-gi-7/0)#portmode hybrid
FTOS(conf-if-gi-7/0)#interface vlan 10
FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#untagged gi 7/0
FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#interface vlan 20
FTOS(conf-if-vl-20)#tagged gi 7/0
FTOS(conf-if-vl-20)#
Usage
Information
The example above sets a port as hybrid, makes the port a tagged member of VLAN 20, and an
untagged member of VLAN 10, which becomes the native VLAN of the port. The port will now
accept:
• untagged frames and classify them as VLAN 10 frames
• VLAN 20 tagged frames
The next example is an example showing output with “Hybrid” as the newly added value for
802.1QTagged. The options for this field are:
• True—port is tagged
• False—port is untagged
• Hybrid—port accepts both tagged and untagged frames
Example 2
(Display Tagged
Hybrid Interface)
FTOS(conf-if-vl-20)#do show interfaces switchport
Name: GigabitEthernet 7/0
802.1QTagged: Hybrid
Vlan membership:
Vlan 10, Vlan 20
Native VlanId: 10
FTOS(conf-if-vl-20)#
The example below is an example unconfiguration of the hybrid port using the no portmode hybrid
command.
Example 3
(Unconfigure
Hybrid Port)
FTOS(conf-if-vl-20)#interface vlan 10
FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#no untagged gi 7/0
FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#interface vlan 20
Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on E-Series and S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series only
Note: You must remove all other configurations on the port before you can remove the hybrid
configuration from the port.
