interface vlan vlan-id

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

INTERFACE mode

tagged <interface type> interface

<interface type> — Enter the following keywords and slot/port or number information:

• For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/port

information.

• For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number. The range is

from 1 to 128.

• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port

information.

This command is available only in VLAN interfaces.

3. Move untagged interfaces. Access 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.

INTERFACE mode

untagged <interface type> interface

<interface type> — Enter the following keywords and slot/port or number information:

• For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/port

information.

• For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number. The range is

from 1 to 128.

• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port

information.

This command is available only in VLAN interfaces.

5. To exit Configuration mode, use the exit command.

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.

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 for a VLAN does not affect Layer 2 traffic on the VLAN.

NOTE: You cannot assign an IP address to the Default VLAN, which, by default, is VLAN 1. To assign

another VLAN ID to the Default VLAN, use the

default vlan-id vlan-id command from the

configuration mode.

• Access INTERFACE VLAN mode of the VLAN to which you want to assign the IP address then

configure an IP addresses and mask on the interface.
