If there are no active ports using vlan 2, the vlan will not show line up.. That's the way most of our devices work, if you don't connect a router interface To something live, you normally get an up/down status as well...

Why is that? vlan database vlan 2 ! interface FastEthernet0/1 switchport access vlan 2 no shutdown ! interface Vlan2 ip address 2.2.2.2 255.0.0.0 no shutdown If I were to plug a device into interface f0/1, interface vlan 2 will come up/protocol up. I change the access vlan to another vlan, interface vlan 2 will go down. I would appreciate any comments. **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=73433&t=73428 -------------------------------------------------- **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html
