Module: GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB

OID (symbolic): GIGAswitchEthernet-MIB::gsESwitchPortAutoVlanCreation

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.2.1.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Enabling auto VLAN creation for this switch port causes the port to dynamically create a VLAN whenever an IEEE 802.1Q or Multi-level tagged frame is received on the port with a tag value which does not correspond to a known VLAN. All switch ports with a trunking mode of IEEE 802.1Q or Multi-level are bound to this created VLAN. The default is disable.

What is gsESwitchPortAutoVlanCreation?

Enables this port to automatically create a brand-new VLAN whenever it receives an 802.1Q or multi-level tagged frame with a VLAN ID the switch doesn't yet know, binding all trunk ports to the newly created VLAN. The default is disable; admins would only enable it in a controlled lab/testbed, since it lets an unexpected VLAN tag silently spawn a new VLAN in production.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.18.39.5.2.1.1.14
