Chapter 21 | VLAN Commands
Configuring Protocol-based VLANs
– 605 –
To configure protocol-based VLANs, follow these steps:
1. First configure VLAN groups for the protocols you want to use (page 582).
Although not mandatory, we suggest configuring a separate VLAN for each
major protocol running on your network. Do not add port members at this
time.
2. Create a protocol group for each of the protocols you want to assign to a VLAN
using the protocol-vlan protocol-group command (Global Configuration
mode).
3. Then map the protocol for each interface to the appropriate VLAN using the
protocol-vlan protocol-group command (Interface Configuration mode).
protocol-vlan

(Configuring Groups)
This command creates a protocol group, or to add specific protocols to a group. Use
the no form to remove a protocol group.
