M4300 - M4100 and GVRP
I have a couple of M4300 switches acting as a new core stack, and using M4100 as distribution switches. Instead of manually configuring VLANs on all of the M4100 switches, I figured I'd use the GVRP feature. This seems to work, the VLANS on the M4300 get propagated to the M4100 (on port 11 & 12 of the M4100, what defines this?).
Then I want to assign a dynamic VLAN to a certain port on the M4100, for example, VLAN 1025. I select the access port 0/2, set access and native VLAN to 1025 and I get the error "Could not configure VLAN ID". I tried setting the PVID first, but that gives the error "Failed to set configured PVID with 1027". When using the VLAN membership page, and setting the port untagged, I get this error: "Failed to set VLAN membership for VLAN ( 1027 )".
What am I doing wrong here? I thought GVRP would make my life easier, but for now this isn't really working.
Hi pieterjanheyse,
Kindly try to set the VLAN Type from Dynamic to Static then try to modify the settings you prefer. Check if it helps.
