Mode Interface Config
5.2.6.3. switchport trunk allowed vlan
Use this command to configure the list of allowed VLANs that can receive and send traffic on this interface in
tagged format when in trunking mode. The default is all.
The VLANs list can be modified using the add or remove options or replaced with another list using the vlan-list,
all, or except options. If all is choosen, all VLANs are added to the list of allowed vlan. The except option provides
an exclusion list.
Trunk ports accept tagged packets, where tagged packets are processed on the VLAN ID contained in the packet,
if this VLAN is in the allowed VLAN list. Tagged packets received with a VLAN ID to which the port is not a
member are discarded and MAC learning is not performed. If a VLAN is added to the system after a port is set to
the Trunk mode and it is in the allowed VLAN list, this VLAN is assigned to this port automatically.
Format switchport trunk allowed vlan {<vlan-list> | all | add <vlan-list> | remove <vlan-list> | except <vlan-
list>}
