Configuring Vlan Translation - Cisco 7604 Configuration Manual

Chapter 14 Configuring VLANs

Configuring VLAN Translation

On trunk ports, you can translate one VLAN number to another VLAN number, which transfers all traffic
received in one VLAN to the other VLAN.

Release 12.2(17b)SXA and later releases support VLAN translation.
To avoid spanning tree loops, be careful not to misconfigure the VLAN translation feature.
A VLAN translation configuration is inactive if it is applied to ports that are not Layer 2 trunks.
Do not configure translation of ingress native VLAN traffic on an 802.1Q trunk. Because 802.1Q
native VLAN traffic is untagged, it cannot be recognized for translation. You can translate traffic
from other VLANs to the native VLAN of an 802.1Q trunk.
Do not remove the VLAN to which you are translating from the trunk.
The VLAN translation configuration applies to all ports in a port group. VLAN translation is
disabled by default on all ports in a port group. Enable VLAN translation on ports as needed.

Note LAN ports on OSMs support VLAN translation. LAN ports on OSMs are in a single port
group.
