Enterasys Access Port

I'm replacing an Enterasys SG8201-0848-F8 with a new Cisco Core Switch.

The Access is all Extreme EXOS and everything is running RSTP. I'm familiar with Cisco but not Enterasys/Extreme. For ease of interopability I will use MSTP on the Cisco with all VLANs in the CIST.

I'm going through the configurations and need some help:

clear vlan egress 1 lag.0.1-190;ge.2.1-48;tg.4.1-24
set vlan egress 300 ge.2.37 untagged
set port vlan ge.2.37 300

In the snippets of CLI above is the 1st line setting vlan 1 as the native/untagged vlan for all ports?
Are the other 2 CLI outputs configuring ge.2.37 as an access port OR is it a trunk port with the native vlan set to 300

e.g.

interface gi2/37       
 switchport mode access
 switcport access vlan 300

I can't imagine its creating a trunk port with a single vlan then making it the native vlan

e.g.

interface gi2/37    
 switchport mode trunk
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 300
 switchport native vlan 300

regards,

Steven

Hi Steven,

The .1 line will remove lag.0.1-190;ge.2.1-48;tg.4.1-24 from VLAN 1 egress list.

The .2 line : frames in VLAN 300 will leave the port ge.2.37 with no tag. This command is only applicable for frames, that leave the switch for any connected device on this port.

The .3 line : frames with no tags arriving on the port ge.2.37 will be put into VLAN 300. This command changes behavior for incoming frames on port ge.2.37.

You can combinate the both commands in only one : set port ge.2.37 300 modify-egress.

The .2 & .3 line is the equivalent of the following Cisco commands :

interface gi2/37

switchport mode access

switch access vlan 300
