H3C/Comware Switch : Configure HOSTNAME, VLAN, IP and TRUNK

1.Configure the host name

<switch>system-view
[switch]sysname H3C 

2.Create VLAN

<switch>system-view
[switch]vlan 100

3.Delete VLAN

<switch>system-view
[switch]undo vlan 100

4.Add IP to VLAN Interface for management

<switch>system-view
[switch]interface Vlan-interface 100
[switch-Vlan-interface100]ip address 192.168.0.100 255.255.255.0
[switch-Vlan-interface100]display interface Vlan-interface100

Vlan-interface100 current state: UP
Line protocol current state: UP
Description: Vlan-interface100 Interface
The Maximum Transmit Unit is 1500
Internet Address is 192.168.0.100/24 Primary
IP Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2,  Hardware Address: 3ce5-a64f-8fc0
IPv6 Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2,  Hardware Address: 3ce5-a64f-8fc0

5.Configure the switch gateway address

<switch>system-view
[switch]ip route-static 0.0.0.00.0.0.0 192.168.0.1

6.VLAN Status

<switch>display vlan100
VLAN ID: 100

VLAN Type: static
Route Interface: configured
IP Address: 192.168.0.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Description: VLAN 00100
Name: VLAN 00100
Tagged   Ports: none
Untagged Ports:
    GigabitEthernet1/0/23
    GigabitEthernet1/0/24 

7.Change Port type (Access/Trunk/Hybrid)

<switch>system-view
[switch]interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
[switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/1]port link-type access

8.Add the port to VLAN 100

<switch>system-view
[switch] interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/24
[switch] port access vlan 100

9.Set the default VLAN for the trunk port

<switch>system-view
[switch]interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/24
[switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/24]port trunk pvid vlan 100

10.Allow the specified VLAN to pass through the current Trunk port

<switch>system-view
[switch]interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/24
[switch-GigabitEthernet1/0/24]port trunk permit vlan {list|all}

11.View port status

<switch>system-view
[switch] display interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24

12.Enable/Disable the port

<switch>system-view
[switch] interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/24
[switch] undo shutdown
[switch] shutdown

13.View current configuration

<switch>system-view
[switch] display current-configuration

14.Save the switch configuration
<switch>system-view
[switch] save

15.View saved configuration

<switch>system-view
[switch] display saved-configuration

ARUBA SWITCH : Configure HOSTNAME, VLAN, IP and TRUNK

Telnet or SSH to switch. 

1. Create or change switch hostname 

switch# configure
switch<config># hostname <aruba-switch>
aruba-switch<config># exit
aruba-switch<config># write memory
aruba-switch#

2. Create VLANs 

 

aruba-switch# show vlans
aruba-switch# configure
aruba-switch<config># vlan <VLAN-ID>
aruba-switch<config># write memory
aruba-switch<VLAN-ID># 

3. Tagging or Untagging port in VLAN

 

aruba-switch<VLAN-ID># untagged <PORT NUMBER> - allow port to used that vlan ONLY
aruba-switch<VLAN-ID># tagged <PORT NUMBER> - allow that vlan to TRUNK over the port

4. Untagging port in VLAN for trunk to other switch

aruba-switch<VLAN-ID># untagged <PORT NUMBER> - allow that port to used as TRUNK port to other switch

* VLAN-ID is for vlan switch
