Assigning Ports to VLANs

Verifying VLAN Port Associations and Mobile Port Properties

OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Network Configuration Guide

To display a list of VLAN port assignments or the status of mobile port properties, use the show 
commands listed below:

Each line of the show vlan port command display corresponds to a single VLAN port association (VPA). 
In addition to showing the VLAN ID and slot/port number, the VPA type and current status of each asso-
ciation are also provided. 

The VPA type indicates that one of the following methods was used to create the VPA:

The VPA status indicates one of the following:

Displays a list of VLAN port assignments, including the type and status 
for each assignment.

Displays the mobile status and current mobile parameter values for each 
port.

The port was statically assigned to the VLAN using the 

command. The VLAN is now the port’s configured default VLAN.

The port was statically assigned to the VLAN using the 

 com-

mand. The VLAN is a static secondary VLAN for the 802.1Q tagged port. 

The port is mobile and was dynamically assigned when traffic received on 
the port matched VLAN criteria (VLAN rules or tagged VLAN ID). The 
VLAN is a dynamic secondary VLAN assignment for the mobile port.

The port is assigned to the VLAN because it is configured to mirror another 
port that is assigned to the same VLAN. For more information about the 
Port Mirroring feature, see 

Port is not active (administratively disabled, down, or nothing connected to 
the port) for the VPA.

Port is active, but not forwarding traffic for the VPA.

Port is forwarding all traffic for the VPA.

Mobile port traffic is filtered for the VPA; only traffic received on the port 
that matches VLAN rules is forwarded. Occurs when a mobile port’s VLAN 
is administratively disabled or the port’s default VLAN status is disabled. 
Does not apply to fixed ports.
