Default VLAN The switch module reserves one VLAN, VID 1, also called DEFAULT_VLAN. The factory default setting assigns all ports on the switch module to the default VLAN. As new VLANs are configured, their respective member ports are removed from the default VLAN. 2-26 HP ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch Menu-driven Interface Reference Guide HP CONFIDENTIAL Codename: DeLorean Part Number: 322858-001 Last Saved On: 2/4/03 11:56 AM Configuring the Switch Modules using the Menu-driven Interface Characteristics of DEFAULT_VLAN include: · · · · · · · · DEFAULT_VLAN is an IEEE 802. 1Q Static VLAN with VID equal to 1. The VID that is equal to 1 is reserved for DEFAULT_VLAN. The VLAN name can be changed to any other valid VLAN name. You cannot delete a port from DEFAULT_VLAN, unless it is a member of another 802. 1Q VLAN. You cannot forbid a port from DEFAULT_VLAN, unless it is a member of another 802. 1Q VLAN. If a port is deleted from the only 802. 1Q VLAN of which it is a member, then it will automatically become a member of DEFAULT_VLAN as an untagged, egress port. If a port is assigned to a user-created 802. 1Q VLAN, and is not a tagged egress port member of DEFAULT_VLAN (in other words, it is an untagged egress port), then it will be deleted automatically from DEFAULT_VLAN. A tagged egress port of DEFAULT_VLAN will not be deleted from DEFAULT_VLAN, when it is assigned to another user-created 802. 1Q VLAN. · To edit VLAN definitions and to configure port settings for IEEE 802. 1Q VLAN support: 1. Highlight Configure VLANs on the Configuration menu. This number is generally the same as the VID number assigned to the port. Characteristics of a PVID include: · · · · · By default, the PVID of all ports is the same as the VID of DEFAULT_VLAN, which is equal to 1. When a user creates an untagged 802. 1Q VLAN and assigns a port, the PVID will be changed to the VID of that 802. 1Q VLAN. For a tagged port, the PVID will be the same as the VID of the IEEE 802. 1Q VLAN to which this port was first assigned. If the first IEEE 802. 1Q VLAN to which the tagged port is assigned is deleted, the PVID will change to that of the second IEEE 802. 1Q VLAN to which the port was assigned. The PVID of a port can only be set to a VID of a VLAN for which the port is already a member.

Highlight Configure Port VLAN ID on the IEEE 802. 1Q VLANs Configuration menu. The following screen is displayed. 3. Type the range of port numbers you want to configure in the Configure Port field. Type the PVID for the VLAN member ports you want to configure in the PVID field. Port VLAN Identifier (PVID) is a classification mechanism that associates a port with a specific VLAN and is used to make forwarding decisions for untagged packets received by the port.
