Explain the Role of VLANs in a
Converged Network
 A switch virtual interface (SVI) is a VLAN of switch
ports represented by one interface to a routing or
bridging system.
 There is one-to-one mapping between a VLAN and
SVI, thus only a single SVI can be mapped to a VLAN.
 In default setting, an SVI is created for the default
VLAN (VLAN1) to permit remote switch administration.
 An SVI cannot be activated unless associated with a
physical port.

Explain the Role of VLANs in a
Converged Network
•SVIs are generally configured for a VLAN for the following
reasons:
•Allow traffic to be routed between VLANs by providing a
default gateway for the VLAN.
•Provide fallback bridging (if required for non-routable
protocols).
•Provide Layer 3 IP connectivity to the switch.
•Support bridging configurations and routing protocol.

Switchport mode dynamic auto
 This command makes the interface willing to convert
the link to a trunk link if the neighboring interface is set
to trunk or desirable mode. Otherwise, the link will
become a non-trunking link.

Traditionally, the role of a router is to provide
• firewall
• broadcast management
• route processing & distribution
Routers are used to properly communicate between
different VLANs. Use the routers as your backbone to
transmit information at high bandwidth among your
VLAN switches.
Routers in VLAN topologies provide
• broadcast filtering
• security
• traffic flow management

Properties of VLANs:
• VLANs work at layer 2 & 3 of OSI model
• Communications between VLANs is by layer 3
routing
• VLANs provide a method of controlling network
broadcast
• Network administrator assigns users to VLAN
• VLANs can increase network security by defining
which network nodes can communicate with each
other
A VLAN is a broadcast domain that one or more
switches create

VLAN Operation
Ports that are assigned to the same VLAN share broadcasts.
Ports that do not belong to that VLAN do not share these broadcast.
There are two (2) methods in which to create VLANs:
1. Static VLANs –
This method is also referred to a port-based membership. As a
device is connected to the network, it automatically assumes
the VLAN of that port
2. Dynamic VLANs –
Dynamic VLANs are created through the use of software
packages such as CiscoWorks 2000. With a VLAN
Management Policy Server (VMPS), you can assign switch
ports to VLANs dynamically based on the source MAC address
of the device that is connected to the port.
ITE 1 Chapter 6

Cisco Public
27
Static VLAN
The default VLAN for every port in the switch is
VLAN1, or the management VLAN.
The management VLAN cannot be deleted; however,
additional VLANs can be created and ports can be
reassigned to these alternate VLANs.
A router is used to switch between different VLANs.
Hence, each VLAN should have a unique Layer 3
network or subnet address assigned.

28
Advantages of VLANs:
• reduce administration costs related to solving problems associated
with moves, additions & changes
• 20%-40% of the workforce physically moves each year
• one can move the node to a new location without changing its’
IP / subnet address by plugging the node into port for that VLAN
• controls broadcast activity
• provide workgroup & network security
• save money by keeping their HUBs and connecting them to
switches i.e. don’t’ have to ‘throw away’ the HUBs.
The goal of the end-to-end VLANs, is to maintain the 80/20 traffic flow
rule – 80% of the traffic on the local VLAN, and 20% on a remote VLAN.

29
Broadcast:
Switches (not talking about VLANs here) create ‘smaller collision’
domains, but they do not create smaller broadcast domains. Hence
use routers which don’t propagate broadcasts.
Though by setting up the different VLANs on a switch, one can control
the broadcast messaging from one VLAN to another.
Security:
• restrict the number of users in a VLAN group
• prevent another user from joining without first receiving approval
from the VLAN network administrator
• configure all unused ports to a default low-service VLAN
• adding access list in the router

Using Hubs with VLANs
Each hub segment that is connected to a
switch port can be assigned to only one
VLAN.
All stations that share a hub segment
become members of the same VLAN
group.

VLAN Types
Port-based VLANs (static):
• nodes connected to ports in the same VLAN have same VLAN
ID.
• users are assigned by port
MAC address-based VLANs (dynamic):
• VLAN Management Policy Server (VMPS)
• are ports on a switch that can automatically determine their VLAN
assignments
Protocol-based VLANs (dynamic):
• are ports on a switch that can automatically determine their VLAN
assignments
• functions are based on:
• logical addressing
• protocol type

VLAN Frame Identification
With multiswitch VLANs, the frame headers are
encapsulated or modified to reflect a VLAN ID before
the frame is sent onto the link between the switches.
Multiple trunking methodologies include:
• IEEE 802.1q
• ISL (Inter-Switch Link Protocol)
• 802.10
• LANE (LAN Emulation)

33
The most common approach for logically
grouping users into distinct VLAN:
• Frame Filtering
• filtering table is developed. Can be based
on
• MAC
• protocol
• each frame is examined
• depending on the ‘filter table’ sends the
frame out the designated port
ITE 1 Chapter 6

34
Frame Identification
A unique VLAN ID is assigned to each VLAN in
the switch the tagged frame travels the
backbone among switches
When the frame exits the switch on nonbackbone, the identifier is removed
This technique is chosen by IEEE (IEEE
802.1q)gaining as the standard trunking
mechanism function at layer 2

Inter-Switch Link Protocol
ISL is a Cisco proprietary encapsulation protocol that
interconnects multiple switches.
FDDI 802.10
Is a Cisco proprietary method of transporting VLAN
information inside the standard IEEE 802.10 frame for
Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI).

LAN Emulation (LANE)
LANE is a standard defined by the ATM Forum that
gives two stations attached via ATM the same
capabilities they normally have if they are LANs such
as Ethernet or Token Ring.
The function of the LANE protocol is to emulate a LAN
on top of ATM network.
That is, the LANE protocols make an ATM network look
and behave like an Ethernet or Token Ring LAN.

FACTS
VLAN makes up a switched network that is logically segmented
by functions, project teams or applications, without regard to the
physical location of users.
Each switch port can be assigned to a VLAN.
Ports assigned to the same VLAN share broadcasts.
So VLANs are used to create broadcast domains.
VLAN implementation methods used to assign a switch port to a
VLAN:
• port-centric
• static
• dynamic

Only the devices on the same VLAN contend with collisions. Hence
broadcast traffic within one VLAN is not transmitted outside the VLAN.

NOTE:
For configuring static VLANs on Cisco 29xx
switches:
• max number of VLANs is switch dependent & is
limited by the number of ports on the switch.
• VLAN1 is one of the factory-default VLANs
• VLAN1 is the default Ethernet VLAN
• Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) & VLAN
Trunking Protocol (VTP) advertisements are sent
on VLAN1.

41
NOTEs:
Some encapsulation protocol, such as 802.1q
or ISL, must be configured on all switch
trunks that participate in the VLAN.
• commands for configuring VLANs vary by
model number.
• the catalyst 29xx IP address is in the
VLAN1 broadcast domain.
• switch must be in VTP server mode to
create, add, or delete VLANs.

For non-VLAN configuration, switches makes ‘smaller
collision’ domain. However, they do not make ‘smaller
broadcast’ domains. A broadcast messages is sent to all
the devices connected to the switch.

Use routers to reduce the broadcast of messages. A
broadcast on Switch A is broadcast to all of its users, but is
