Connect Two Switches With Two Restricted XVLANs

This example assumes the same configuration of SEFOS1 as is described in Single-Switch Configuration. The additional switch that is included in the multiple-switch configuration (SEFOS2) is configured as described in this section.

  1. Disable GVRP.
    SEFOS# conf t
    SEFOS(config)# set gvrp disable
    SEFOS(config)#
  2. Create the principal VLAN and add ports to it.
    SEFOS(config)# xvlan 10
    SEFOS(config-xvlan)# ports internal extreme-ethernet 0/2,0/11-12 external extreme-ethernet 0/1 name main
  3. Create a group-restricted XVLANs and add ports to it.
    SEFOS(config-xvlan)# xvlan 100 group ports internal extreme-ethernet 0/2 external extreme-ethernet 0/1 name group100
  4. Create a solitary-restricted XVLAN and add ports to it.
    SEFOS(config-xvlan)# xvlan 600 solo ports internal extreme-ethernet 0/11-12 external extreme-ethernet 0/1 name solo600 
    SEFOS(config-xvlan)# exit 
    SEFOS(config)# 
  5. Enable the interfaces.
    SEFOS(config)# internal extreme-ethernet 0/1 
    SEFOS(config-if)# no shutdown 
    SEFOS(config-if)# exit 
    SEFOS(config)# 
    SEFOS(config)# internal extreme-ethernet 0/2 
    SEFOS(config-if)# no shut 
    SEFOS(config-if)# exit 
    SEFOS(config)# internal extreme-ethernet 0/11-12 
    SEFOS(config-if)# no shutdown 
    SEFOS(config-if)# exit 
    SEFOS(config)# 
    SEFOS(config)# end 
  6. Check the configuration.
    SEFOS# show xvlan

  7. Verify the configuration by checking connectivity on the hosts connected to the external and internal ports.
    1. Ping between external and internal ports.
