Static Virtual LANs (VLANs)
VLAN Operating Rules
■ Deleting Static VLANs: On the switches covered in this guide you can
delete a VLAN regardless of whether there are currently any ports belong-
ing to that VLAN. (The ports are moved to the default VLAN.)
■ Adding or Deleting VLANs: Changing the number of VLANs supported
on the switch requires a reboot. (From the CLI, you must perform a write
memory command before rebooting.) Other VLAN configuration changes
are dynamic.
■ Inbound Tagged Packets: If a tagged packet arrives on a port that is not
a tagged member of the VLAN indicated by the packet’s VID, the switch
drops the packet. Similarly, the switch will drop an inbound, tagged packet
if the receiving port is an untagged member of the VLAN indicated by the
packet’s VID.
■ Untagged Packet Forwarding: To enable an inbound port to forward
an untagged packet, the port must be an untagged member of either a
protocol VLAN matching the packet’s protocol or an untagged member of
a port-based VLAN. That is, when a port receives an incoming, untagged
packet, it processes the packet according to the following ordered crite-
ria:
a. If the port has no untagged VLAN memberships, the switch drops the
packet.
b. If the port has an untagged VLAN membership in a protocol VLAN
that matches the protocol type of the incoming packet, then the
switch forwards the packet on that VLAN.
c. If the port is a member of an untagged, port-based VLAN, the switch
forwards the packet to that VLAN. Otherwise, the switch drops the
packet.
HP Switch(config)# vlan 97 protocol ipv4
IPv4 assigned without ARP, this may result in
undeliverable IP packets.
Indicates a protocol VLAN configured
with IPv4, but not ARP.
