Summary

• Poorly designed networks can lead to large broadcastdomains.

• A hierarchical IP addressing scheme scales well in the CampusInfrastructure module.

The interconnection technology used depends on the amountof traffic the link must carry.

• Select the best equipment, cabling, and interconnectiontechnologies to connect devices.

• VLANs should map to the IP hierarchy for the Campus

Infrastructure module.• Separate voice and data VLANs are recommended.

What Is an End-to-End VLAN?

• Users are grouped into VLANs independent of physicallocation.

• If users are moved within the campus, their VLANmembership remains the same.

How to Configure Trunking

1. Enter interface configuration mode.

2. Shut down interface.

3. Select the encapsulation (802.1Q or ISL).

4. Configure the interface as a Layer 2 trunk.

5. Specify the trunking native VLAN (for 802.1Q).

6. Configure the allowable VLANs for this trunk.

7. Use the no shutdown command on the interface toactivate the trunking process.

8. Verify the trunk configuration.

• VLANs administered centrally at a chosen switch

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 44/66

The VTP Protocol

VTP Pruning

• Uses bandwidth more efficiently by reducing unnecessaryflooded traffic

• Example: Station A sends broadcast; broadcast flooded onlytoward any switch with ports assigned to the red VLAN

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 47/66

VTP Operation

VTP advertisements are sent as multicast frames.• VTP servers and clients are synchronized to the latest revision number.

• VTP advertisements are sent every 5 minutes or when there is a change.

• VTP Pruning uses available bandwidth more efficiently.

• VTP uses a specific process to distribute and synchronizeVLAN information between switches.

• Various commands are used to configure and verify VTPoperation on a switch.

• VTP commands should be applied in a particular order.

• Specific steps should be followed when adding a new switchto an existing VTP domain.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 56/66

Issues with 802.1Q Native VLAN

• Native VLAN frames are carried over the trunk link untagged.

• A native VLAN mismatch will merge traffic between VLANs.

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 57/66

802.1Q Native VLAN Considerations

Native VLAN must match at ends of trunk; otherwise, frames will“leak” from one VLAN to another. 

• By default, the native VLAN will be VLAN1.

 – Avoid using VLAN1 for management purposes.

• Eliminate native VLANs from 802.1Q trunks by making the native

VLAN an “unused” VLAN.

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 58/66

Explaining Trunk Link Problems

• Trunks can be configured statically or autonegotiated with DTP.

• For trunking to be autonegotiated, the switches must be in the sameVTP domain.

• Some trunk configuration combinations will successfully configurea trunk, some will not.

• Will any of the above combinations result in an operational trunk?

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 59/66

Resolving Trunk Link Problems

• When using DTP, ensure that both ends of the link are in thesame VTP domain.

• Ensure that the trunk encapsulation type configured on bothends of the link is valid.

On links where trunking is not required, DTP should beturned off.

• Best practice is to configure trunk and nonegotiate wheretrunks are required.

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 60/66

Common Problems with VTP Configuration

• Updates not received as expected

 – VTP domain and passwordmust match.

• Missing VLANs

 – Configuration has beenoverwritten by another VTPdevice.

• Too many VLANs

 – Consider making VTP domainsmaller.

Implementing VTP in the ECNM

• Plan VTP domain boundaries.

• Have only one or two VTP servers.

• Configure a VTP password.

• Manually configure the VTP domain name on all devices.

• When setting up a new domain:

 – Configure VTP client switches first so that they participatepassively.

• When cleaning up an existing VTP domain:

 –Configure passwords on servers first because clients mayneed to maintain current VLAN information until the server is verified as complete.

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 64/66

Summary

• 802.1Q native VLAN can cause security issues.

• Configure the native VLAN to be an “unused” VLAN. 

• Some trunk link configuration combinations can result inproblems on the link.

•Best practice is to configure trunks statically rather thanwith DTP.

• Misconfiguration of VTP can give unexpected results.

• Make only one or two VTP servers; keep the remainder asclients.

7/27/2019 BCMSN30S02 VLAN

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bcmsn30s02-vlan 65/66

Module Summary

• A poorly designed network leads to large broadcast domains.

• Global configuration mode is the preferred way of creatingand managing VLANs.

• Multiple VLANs can be carried on a single access todistribution link by configuring VLAN trunking.

• VLAN configuration information can be sent betweenswitches using VTP.

• VLAN configuration issues can lead to unexpectedcommunication problems.
