Introduction

This document provides basic information on how to create VLANs on Catalyst switches that run
Catalyst OS (CatOS) and Cisco IOS® System Software. The sample commands for each section use one
Catalyst switch from each configuration section.

Prerequisites

Requirements

Cisco recommends that you have knowledge of the information in this section.

VLANs are a mechanism to allow network administrators to create logical broadcast domains that can
span across a single switch or multiple switches, regardless of physical proximity. This function is useful
to reduce the size of broadcast domains or to allow groups or users to be logically grouped without the
need to be physically located in the same place.

In order to create VLANs, you must decide how to configure these items:

• What VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) domain name and VTP mode to use on this switch
• Which ports on the switch belong to which VLAN
• If you need to have communication between VLANs, or if they are isolated

If you require communication between VLANs, you must use a Layer 3 routing device, such
as an external Cisco router or an internal router module. Here are examples:

o WS-X4232-Layer 3 card for Catalyst 4500/4000 Switches with Supervisor Engine I
and Supervisor Engine II
o Route Switch Module (RSM) or Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC) for Catalyst
5500/5000 Switches

o Multilayer Switch Module (MSM) or Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC) for
Catalyst 6500/6000 Switches

Some of the switches have built-in support in software and hardware to do interVLAN
routing. With interVLAN routing, no external device, modules, or daughter cards are
required. Here are examples of such switches:

o Catalyst 3550/3750/6500 with Supervisor Engine 720
o Catalyst 4500/4000 with Supervisor Engine II+, Supervisor Engine III, and
Supervisor Engine IV

Refer to these documents for more information on interVLAN routing configuration on an MSFC, RSM,
RSFC, or external router:

• Configuring InterVLAN Routing with Catalyst 3750/3560/3550 Series Switches
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing on the MSFC section of Configuring InterVLAN Routing
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing on the RSM section of Configuring InterVLAN Routing
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing on the RSFC section of Configuring InterVLAN Routing
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing on an External Cisco Router section of Configuring
InterVLAN Routing
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing Using an Internal Router (Layer 3 Card) on Catalyst
5500/5000 and 6500/6000 Switches That Run CatOS System Software
• Configuring InterVLAN Routing and ISL/802.1Q Trunking on a Catalyst

Note: This document assumes that you have basic connectivity to the switch, either through the console
or through Telnet access. Refer to these documents for more information on how to get basic connectivity
to the switches:

• Catalyst 6500/6000 Series Switches—Basic Software Configuration
• Catalyst 2900 Series XL Switches—Quick Start Guide

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these hardware and software versions:

• Catalyst 6009 Switch that runs CatOS 5.5(x) software

Difference Between CatOS and Cisco IOS System Software

CatOS on the Supervisor Engine and Cisco IOS Software on the MSFC (Hybrid): a CatOS image can
be used as the system software to run the Supervisor Engine on Catalyst 6500/6000 Switches. If the
optional MSFC is installed, a separate Cisco IOS Software image is used to run the MSFC.

Cisco IOS Software on both the Supervisor Engine and MSFC (Native): a single Cisco IOS Software
image can be used as the system software to run both the Supervisor Engine and MSFC on Catalyst
6500/6000 Switches.

Note: Refer to Comparison of the Cisco Catalyst and Cisco IOS Operating Systems for the Cisco Catalyst
6500 Series Switch for more information.

Configure the VLAN on Catalyst Switches That Run CatOS


Complete the steps in this section in order to create a VLAN.

Before you can create a VLAN, the switch must be in VTP server mode or VTP transparent mode. If the
switch is a VTP server, you must define a VTP domain name before you can add any VLANs.

1. Define a VTP domain name.

You must define the VTP domain name regardless of:

o The number of switches in the network, whether one or many
o Whether you use VTP in order to propagate VLANs to other switches in the
network

This is the default VTP configuration on the switch:

CatosSwitch> (enable)show vtp domain

Note: Refer to Understanding and Configuring VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more
information on VTP.

Note: If you have the output of a show vtp domain command from your Cisco device, you
can use Output Interpreter ( registered customers only) in order to display potential issues
and fixes.

15. After you set and verify the VTP domain, begin to create VLANs on the switch.

By default, there is only a single VLAN for all ports. This VLAN is called default. You
cannot rename or delete VLAN 1.

Issue the show vlan command in order to display the parameters for all configured VLANs
in the administrative domain.

In order to remove ports from a VLAN, issue the set vlan vlan_number mod/ports command and place
the ports in a different VLAN. This removal is essentially what happens when you assign a port to any
VLAN because all ports initially belong to VLAN 1.

In order to delete a VLAN, issue the clear vlan command. The ports are deactivated because they remain
a part of that VLAN, and the VLAN no longer exists. The switch displays a warning and gives you the
opportunity to cancel the current request.

CatosSwitch> (enable)clear vlan 3

This command will deactivate all ports on vlan 3
in the entire management domain.

Note: Ports 3/13 through 3/15 are not displayed in the output of the show vlan command because the
removal of VLAN 3 deactivates these ports. The ports are not displayed until you add them back in
another VLAN.


This section provides troubleshooting tips for common problems that you can encounter while you create
VLANs on Catalyst Switches that run CatOS:

• If you create a VLAN when there is no VTP domain name defined, you receive this error
message:

Cannot add/modify VLANs on a VTP server without a domain
name.

In order to correct this, create a VTP domain name on the switch. The Create VLANs and
Ports section provides the procedure.

• If you create a VLAN on a switch that is in VTP client mode, you receive this error message:

Cannot add/modify VLANs on a VTP client.

Note: A switch can only create VLANs if it is in VTP server mode or VTP transparent mode.
Refer to Understanding and Configuring VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more information
on VTP.

• Ports are in the inactive state in show port mod/port command output. This state means
that the VLAN to which the ports originally belonged was deleted, usually because of VTP.
You can either recreate that VLAN or correct the VTP configuration so that the VLAN is
reestablished in the VTP domain. This is sample show port mod/port command output:
• CatosSwitch> (enable)show port 3/1

Configure the VLAN on Catalyst 2900XL, 3500XL, 2950, 2970, and 2940 Series Switches


Note: The output that you see can be different from some of the command output that this section
displays. The difference depends on the model of your switch.

Complete these steps in order to create a VLAN.

1. Decide whether to use VTP in your network.

With VTP, you can make configuration changes centrally on a single switch, and you can
automatically communicate those changes to all the other switches in the network. The
default VTP mode on the Catalyst 2900XL, 3500XL, 2950, 2970, and 2940 Switches is the
server mode. Refer to Understanding and Configuring VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) for more
information on VTP.

Note: Issue the show vtp status command in order to check the VTP status on XL Series
Switches.

2. After you set and verify the VTP domain, begin to create VLANs on the switch.

By default, there is only a single VLAN for all ports. This VLAN is called default. You
cannot rename or delete VLAN 1.

Issue the show vlan command in order to check the VLAN information.

28. You can add ports (interfaces) in the newly created VLAN.

You must go to interface configuration mode for each of the interfaces that you want to add
into the new VLAN.

Note: You can assign the ports of Layer 2 Catalyst XL Series Switches to multiple VLANs,
but the switches support only one active management VLAN interface at a time and other
switched virtual interfaces (SVIs) do not up/up because of Layer 2 functionality. Therefore,
the switches support only one active management Layer 3 address. On Catalyst XL Series
Switches, you can issue the optional management command under the new SVI in order to
automatically shut down VLAN 1 and transfer the IP address to the new VLAN.

Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#interface vlan 2
Switch(config-subif)#management
Switch(config-subif)#^Z
Switch#show ip interface brief

FastEthernet0/1 unassigned YES unset up
up
FastEthernet0/2 unassigned YES unset up

Issue this set of commands in privileged mode in order to add a particular interface in the
VLAN:

In order to remove ports from the VLAN, issue the no switchport access vlan vlan_number command in
interface configuration mode. After the port is removed from a VLAN that is not VLAN 1 (the default
VLAN), that port is automatically added back to the default VLAN.

For example, if you want to remove interface Fast Ethernet 0/2 from cisco_vlan_2 (VLAN 2), issue this
set of commands in privileged mode:

3524XL#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.


3524XL(config-if)#no switchport access vlan 2

In order to delete the VLAN, issue the no vlan vlan_number command in VLAN database mode.
Interfaces in that VLAN remain a part of that VLAN and are deactivated because they no longer belong
to any VLAN.

For example, if you want to delete cisco_vlan_2 from the switch, issue this set of commands in privileged
mode:

3524XL#vlan database

!--- This command enters you into the VLAN database mode.

3524XL(vlan)#no vlan 2

!--- This command removes the VLAN from the database.

Notice that port Fast Ethernet 0/3 is not displayed in the show vlan command output. The removal of
VLAN 2 deactivates this port. Unless you add the port back in another VLAN, the port is neither
displayed or usable.

3524XL#show interfaces fastethernet 0/3

FastEthernet0/3 is down, line protocol is down


In order to make the interface usable, you must ensure that it belongs to some VLAN. In the case in this
section of the document, you must add interface Fast Ethernet 0/3 to the default VLAN (VLAN 1) in
order to make this interface usable.

If you have the output of a show-tech support command from your Cisco device, you can use Output
Interpreter ( registered customers only) in order to display potential issues and fixes.

Note: In the case of Catalyst 3550 Switches, you can still use the interface without the addition of the
interface to a VLAN. However, you need to make that interface a Layer 3 interface. Refer to the
Configuring Layer 3 Interfaces section of Configuring Interface Characteristics for more information on
Layer 3 interfaces on Catalyst 3550 Switches.

Configure a Multi-VLAN Port on Catalyst 2900XL/3500XL

The multi-VLAN port feature on Catalyst 2900XL/3500XL Switches allows you to configure a single
port in two or more VLANs. This feature allows users from different VLANs to access a server or router
without the implementation of interVLAN routing capability. A multi-VLAN port performs normal
switching functions in all of its assigned VLANs. VLAN traffic on the multi-VLAN port is not
encapsulated as it is in trunking.

Note: These are the limitations to the implementation of multi-VLAN port features:

• You cannot configure a multi-VLAN port when a trunk is configured on the switch. You can
connect the multi-VLAN port only to a router or server. The switch automatically transitions
to VTP transparent mode when the multi-VLAN port feature is enabled, which disables the
VTP. No VTP configuration is necessary.
• The multi-VLAN port feature is supported only on Catalyst 2900XL/3500XL Series
Switches. This feature is not supported on Catalyst 4500/4000, 5500/5000, or 6500/6000
Series Switch or any other Catalyst switches.

1. Determine which port to configure as a multi-VLAN port.

Here, three VLANs are created on a Catalyst 3512XL Switch, and one port of the switch is
connected to an external router. This example configures the port that is connected to the
router as a multi-VLAN port.

Configure the VLAN on Catalyst 3550, 3750, 4500/4000, and 6500/6000 Switches That Run Cisco
IOS Software


This section uses the Catalyst 4500 Switch for sample configuration commands, but the configuration
tasks also apply to other switches that run Layer 3 (or Cisco IOS Software). These other switches include
the Catalyst 3550, 3570, and 6500 Series Switches that run Cisco IOS Software. Before you can create a
VLAN, the switch must be in VTP server mode or VTP transparent mode. If the switch is a VTP server,
you must define a VTP domain name before you add any VLANs. You must define a VTP domain name
regardless of:

• The number of switches in the network, whether one or many

• Whether you use VTP in order to propagate VLANs to other switches in the network

Refer to Understanding and Configuring VTP for more information on how to configure VTP on Catalyst
4500/4000 Cisco IOS Software-based Supervisor Engine modules. Refer to the Software Configuration
Guide for the switch platform under consideration for VTP configuration information for other Catalyst
switch platforms. Refer to the LAN Product Support Pages in order to locate the Software Configuration
Guide.

You can create VLANs in either VLAN database mode or global configuration mode. You must create
VLANs that are numbered higher than 1005 in global configuration mode. And the VTP mode must be
set to transparent in order to create these VLANs. VLANs that are numbered higher than 1005 are not
advertised by VTP. Furthermore, VLANs that are numbered higher than 1005 are stored in the switch
configuration file and not in the VLAN .dat file. The default location of the VLAN .dat file in Catalyst
4000 Switches with Supervisor Engine IV is the cat4000_flash directory.

Switch#dir cat4000_flash:

Directory of cat4000_flash:/

1 -rw- 676 <no date> vlan.dat

524260 bytes total (523584 bytes free)

Note: A Catalyst 6500 Switch that runs Cisco IOS Software allows you to create VLANs in server mode
without a VTP domain name.

The show vtp status command shows the VTP information in the switch.

In Cisco IOS Software, interfaces are in the shutdown state by default, unlike in CatOS-based switches.
In CatOS, the port becomes active if it senses the presence of a physical link.

By default, Cisco IOS Software interfaces are Layer 2 interfaces on Catalyst 3550, 3750, and 4500 Series
Switches. The interfaces are Layer 3 interfaces on Catalyst 6500/6000 Series Switches. You can
configure the interface as a Layer 2 interface with the switchport command in interface configuration
mode. You must issue this command before you assign an interface to a VLAN, if the interface is in
Layer 3 mode. The command to assign an interface to a VLAN is switchport access vlan vlan_number .

Note: If the interface is configured as a Layer 3 interface, which means that the no switchport command
is configured, you cannot assign the interface to a VLAN.

In order to associate the ports to VLANs in Cisco IOS Software, this minimum configuration is required:

Switch(config)#interface gigabitethernet 3/1

Switch(config-if)#switchport

!--- This command is required if the interface is in Layer 3 mode.

Switch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2

Switch(config-if)#no shutdown

Issue the show interface gigabitethernet module/interface switchport command in order to check the
Layer 2 interface status.

Switch#show interface gigabitethernet 3/1 switchport

Name: Gi3/1
Switchport: Enabled
Administrative Mode: dynamic auto
Operational Mode: static access

If the port is set up as a trunk, which is a port that can carry more than one VLAN, the switchport trunk
native vlan command can be useful. The command is useful if the native VLAN of the interface has been
changed or needs to be changed from its defaults. The native VLAN is the VLAN that is used if the
interface is to become a Layer 2 interface. If you do not explicitly define a native VLAN, VLAN 1
becomes the native VLAN by default. Be aware that an IEEE 802.1Q header is not added when data are
sent on the native VLAN. Ensure that the trunk ports on both of the connected devices have the same
native VLAN. A mismatch in native VLANs can cause interVLAN routing issues, among other problems.

This message appears when the native VLAN is mismatched on the two Cisco switches:

%CDP-4-NATIVE_VLAN_MISMATCH: Native VLAN mismatch discovered on
GigabitEhernet1/1 (2),
with D-R3550-9B GigabitEthernet0/1 (1)

In this example message, the native VLAN is VLAN 2 on one of the switches, but the neighboring switch
has native VLAN 1.

Issue the show interfaces module/interface trunk command in order to see the native VLAN,
encapsulation, and trunking VLAN information.

Switch#show interfaces gigabitethernet 3/1 trunk

Port Mode Encapsulation Status Native vlan
Gi3/1 on 802.1q trunking 1
Port Vlans allowed on trunk
Gi3/1 1-4094
Port Vlans allowed and active in management domain
Gi3/1 1-4,2000,3000
Port Vlans in spanning tree forwarding state and not pruned
Gi3/1 none

If you use the default configuration, native VLAN is set to VLAN 1. In order to change the native VLAN
on the interface that is trunking, issue the switchport trunk native vlan vlan_number command.

Switch(config)#interface gigabitethernet 3/1

Switch(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan 2

Issue this command in order to verify:

Switch#show interfaces gigabitethernet 3/1 trunk

Port Mode Encapsulation Status Native vlan
Gi3/1 on 802.1q trunking 2
Port Vlans allowed on trunk
Gi3/1 1-4094
Port Vlans allowed and active in management domain
Gi3/1 1-4,2000,3000
Port Vlans in spanning tree forwarding state and not pruned
Gi3/1 none

Assign Multiple Ports to a Single VLAN

You can assign the multiple interfaces on a switch to a single VLAN. Issue these commands:

1. Switch(config)#interface range fastethernet [mod/slot -
mod/slot]
2.
3. Switch(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan
vlan_number
4.
5.
6. Switch(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
7.
8. Switch(config-if-range)#no shut
9.

Note: The interface range command is not supported in all software releases. The interface range
command is supported in Cisco IOS Software Release 12.1(13)EW and later.

Remove VLANs

In order to remove a VLAN from the VLAN database, issue the no vlan vlan_number command in either
VLAN database mode or global configuration mode. This example uses the VLAN database mode to
remove VLAN 2.

Switch#vlan database

Switch(vlan)#no vlan 2

Deleting VLAN 2...

Switch(vlan)#apply

APPLY completed.

The global configuration mode does not log any message on the console that indicates the deletion of the
VLAN. However, you can issue the show vlan command in order to verify the deletion of the VLAN.


This section provides troubleshooting tips for common problems that you can encounter during the
creation of VLANs on Catalyst switches that run Cisco IOS Software.

On switches that run Cisco IOS Software, you can use the switch itself for interVLAN routing, instead of
an external router. When an SVI is created, it does not automatically create a VLAN in the Layer 2
database. In order for an SVI to come up, a VLAN must be created in VLAN database mode or (in later
Cisco IOS Software releases) in global configuration mode. In order for the SVI to be fully active, which
means that it is administratively up and line protocol is up, be sure to have at least one port as a member
of that VLAN, with an active device connected to the port.

This same issue applies when you copy configurations from a different switch or restore configurations
with VLANs that were created in VLAN database mode. You must also replace the VLAN database file
(vlan.dat), or you must recreate the VLANs, as the procedure in the Create VLANs and Ports section of
this document shows. If you copy the configuration from another switch, the VLAN database is not
copied.

If the Layer 2 VLAN has not been created on the switch, SVI interfaces show as UP/DOWN in the show
