Reference Guide

To view which interfaces are tagged or untagged and to view which VLAN the interfaces belong, use the

show vlan command. To view just the interfaces that are in Layer 2 mode, use the show interfaces

switchport command in EXEC Privilege mode or EXEC mode.

To tag frames leaving an interface in Layer 2 mode, assign that interface to a port-based VLAN to tag it

with that VLAN ID.

1. Access the INTERFACE VLAN mode of the VLAN to which you want to assign the interface.

CONFIGURATION mode

interface vlan vlan-id

2. Enable an interface to include the IEEE 802.1Q tag header.

INTERFACE mode

tagged interface

3. To move untagged interfaces from the default VLAN to another VLAN, use the untagged command.

Access the INTERFACE VLAN mode of the VLAN to which you want to assign the interface.

CONFIGURATION mode

interface vlan vlan-id

4. Configure an interface as untagged. This command is available only in VLAN interfaces.

Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN

VLANs are a Layer 2 feature. For two physical interfaces on different VLANs to communicate, assign an IP

address to the VLANs to route traffic between the two interfaces. The shutdown command in

INTERFACE mode does not affect Layer 2 traffic on the interface.

NOTE: You cannot assign an IP address to the default VLAN, which, by default, is VLAN1. To assign

another VLAN ID to the default VLAN, use the default vlan-id vlan-id command.

• Configure an IP address and mask on the interface.
