We use static, although I had a large test-bed setup with dynamic vlans.

The good thing about static vlans is when it comes to troubleshooting. If
you keep vlan1 (teachers) and vlan2  (students) in one closet, and vlan3
(teachers) and vlan4 (students) in another  closet, it simpilifies things
(teachers for example don't have to be in the same vlan, but you can still
give vlans 1 and 3 the same access to resources through ACL's/VACL's, or NT
shares for that matter).

For example, say you have a STP or multicast anomoly... you have confined
the problem to one closet versus the entire campus.

Hopefully that made sense!

Vlans rock,
Jeff
