What is vlanSwitchPortModeCategory?

This read-write INTEGER, defaulting to l2(1), declares whether a port operates as a Layer 2 switchport or a Layer 3 routed (no-switchport) interface. An admin changes this when repurposing a port for IP routing instead of VLAN switching, which affects whether VLAN membership settings on that port even apply. For example, setting a port to l3(2) converts it into a routed interface suitable for directly connecting a router, at which point its VLAN trunk/access settings no longer apply.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
