3.4.5 Packet Tracer - Configure Trunks PDF

The document describes configuring trunks between switches to allow connectivity between PCs in the same VLAN but connected to different switches. It involves: 1) Verifying the VLAN configuration on each switch and lack of connectivity between inter-switch PCs. 2) Configuring trunks between the switches and setting VLAN 99 as the native VLAN on one switch, which the other switches automatically adopt. 3) Verifying trunking is enabled between the switches and that VLANs 1,10,20,30,88,99 can cross the trunks.

Objectives
Part 1: Verify VLANs
Part 2: Configure Trunks

Background
Trunks are required to pass VLAN information between switches. A port on a switch is either an access port or
a trunk port. Access ports carry traffic from a specific VLAN assigned to the port. A trunk port by default is a
member of all VLANs. Therefore, it carries traffic for all VLANs. This activity focuses on creating trunk ports
and assigning them to a native VLAN other than the default.

Instructions
Part 1: Verify VLANs
Step 1: Display the current VLANs.
Open configuration window

a. On S1, issue the command that will display all VLANs configured. There should be ten VLANs in total.
Notice that all 26 access ports on the switch are assigned to VLAN 1.
b. On S2 and S3, display and verify that all the VLANs are configured and assigned to the correct switch
ports according to the Addressing Table.
Close configuration window

Step 2: Verify loss of connectivity between PCs on the same network.


Ping between hosts on the same VLAN on the different switches. Although PC1 and PC4 are on the same
network, they cannot ping one another. This is because the ports connecting the switches are assigned to
VLAN 1 by default. In order to provide connectivity between the PCs on the same network and VLAN, trunks
must be configured.

Part 2: Configure Trunks


Step 1: Configure trunking on S1 and use VLAN 99 as the native VLAN.

Packet Tracer - Configure Trunks

a. Configure G0/1 and G0/2 interfaces on S1 for trunking.


S1(config)# interface range g0/1 - 2 S1(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
b. Configure VLAN 99 as the native VLAN for G0/1 and G0/2 interfaces on S1.
S1(config-if)# switchport trunk native vlan 99
The trunk port takes about a short time to become active due to Spanning Tree Protocol. Click Fast
Forward Time to speed the process. After the ports become active, you will periodically receive the
following syslog messages:
%CDP-4-NATIVE_VLAN_MISMATCH: Native VLAN mismatch discovered on GigabitEthernet0/2
(99), with S3 GigabitEthernet0/2 (1).
%CDP-4-NATIVE_VLAN_MISMATCH: Native VLAN mismatch discovered on GigabitEthernet0/1
(99), with S2 GigabitEthernet0/1 (1).

You configured VLAN 99 as the native VLAN on S1. However, S2 and S3 are using VLAN 1 as the default
native VLAN as indicated by the syslog message.
Question:

Although you have a native VLAN mismatch, pings between PCs on the same VLAN are now successful.
Explain.

Pingid on edukad, kuna S1-s on magistraalvõrk lubatud. Dünaamiline magistraalprotokoll (DTP) on


magistraallinkide teisel poolel automaatselt kokku leppinud. Sel juhul on S2 ja S3 nüüd automaatselt
konfigureerinud S1-ga ühendatud pordid magistraalportidena.
Type your answers here.

Step 2: Verify trunking is enabled on S2 and S3.


On S2 and S3, issue the show interface trunk command to confirm that DTP has successfully negotiated
trunking with S1 on S2 and S3. The output also displays information about the trunk interfaces on S2 and S3.
You will learn more about DTP later in the course.
Question:

Which active VLANs are allowed to cross the trunk?


1,10,20,30,88,99
Type your answers here.

Step 3: Correct the native VLAN mismatch on S2 and S3.


a. Configure VLAN 99 as the native VLAN for the appropriate interfaces on S2 and S3.
b. Issue show interface trunk command to verify the correct native VLAN configuration.

Step 4: Verify configurations on S2 and S3.


a. Issue the show interface interface switchport command to verify that the native VLAN is now 99.
b. Use the show vlan command to display information regarding configured VLANs.
Question:

Why is port G0/1 on S2 no longer assigned to VLAN 1?


Port G0/1 on magistraalport ja magistraalporte ei kuvata.
Type your answers here.
