VLAN Topologies and Design Considerations
© Copyright Lenovo 2016
Note the following when working with VLAN topologies:
By default, the G8264 software is configured so that tagging/trunk mode is
disabled on all ports.
By default, the G8264 software is configured so that all data ports are members
of VLAN 1.
By default, the Enterprise NOS software is configured so that the management
port is a member of VLAN 4095 (the management VLAN).
STG 256 is reserved for switch management.
When using Spanning Tree, STG 2‐256 may contain only one VLAN unless
Multiple Spanning‐Tree Protocol (MSTP) mode is used. With MSTP mode, STG
1 to 32 can include multiple VLANs.
All ports involved in both aggregation and port mirroring must have the same
VLAN configuration. If a port is on a LAG with a mirroring port, the VLAN
configuration cannot be changed. For more information about aggregation, see
Chapter 10, "Ports and Link Aggregation" and Chapter
46, "Port Mirroring."
