Configuring the Native VLAN for Untagged Traffic

A trunk port configured with 802.1Q tagging can receive both tagged and untagged traffic. By default,
the switch forwards untagged traffic in the native VLAN configured for the port. The native VLAN is
VLAN 1 by default.
The native VLAN can be assigned any VLAN ID; it is not dependent on the management VLAN.
Note
For information about 802.1Q configuration issues, see the
section on page
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the native VLAN on an 802.1Q
trunk:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2 interface interface-id
Step 3
switchport trunk native vlan vlan-id
Step 4
end
Step 5
show interfaces interface-id switchport
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default native VLAN, VLAN 1, use the no switchport trunk native vlan interface
configuration command.
If a packet has a VLAN ID that is the same as the outgoing port native VLAN ID, the packet is sent
untagged; otherwise, the switch sends the packet with a tag.

17-16.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter interface configuration mode, and define the interface that is
configured as the 802.1Q trunk.
Configure the VLAN that is sending and receiving untagged traffic
on the trunk port.
For vlan-id, the range is 1 to 4094 when the EI is installed, and 1 to
1005 when the SI is installed.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries in the Trunking Native Mode VLAN field.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
