Creating Access and Trunk Ports

To create access and trunk ports, use the following commands.

  • Access port — a port on the service provider edge that directly connects to the customer. An access port may belong to only one service provider VLAN.
  • Trunk port — a port on a service provider bridge that connects to another service provider bridge and is a member of multiple service provider VLANs.

Physical ports and port-channels can be access or trunk ports.

  1. Assign the role of access port to a Layer 2 port on a provider bridge that is connected to a customer. INTERFACE mode vlan-stack access
  2. Assign the role of trunk port to a Layer 2 port on a provider bridge that is connected to another provider bridge. INTERFACE mode vlan-stack trunk
  3. Assign all access ports and trunk ports to service provider VLANs. INTERFACE VLAN mode member

Example of Displaying the VLAN-Stack Configuration for a Switchport

To display the VLAN-Stacking configuration for a switchport, use the show config command from INTERFACE mode. 
Dell#show run interface gi 7/0
                                 !
                                 interface GigabitEthernet 7/0
                                 no ip address
                                 switchport
                                 vlan-stack access
                                 no shutdown
                                 Dell#show run interface gi 7/12
                                 !
                                 interface GigabitEthernet 7/12
                                 no ip address
                                 switchport
                                 vlan-stack trunk
                                 no shutdown
