i tend to use the conf t---vlan 37 command because im just use to
configuring it that way. below are 2 ways to create the vlan then add the
appropriate port. according to the cat 3550 paper from Netmaster, you should
use the "exit" command when you are ready to leave the vlan database config
mode and not ctrl^z.
cat1-3550#conf t
cat1-3550(config)#vlan 37
ccat1-3550(config)#int fa0/22
cat1-3550(config-if)#switchport access vlan 37
cat1-3550(config-if)#^Z
cat1-3550#vlan database
cat1-3550(vlan)#vlan 37
VLAN 38 added:
Name: VLAN0037
cat1-3550(vlan)#exit
APPLY completed.
Exiting....
cat1-3550#conf t
cat1-3550(config)#int fa0/22
ccat1-3550(config-if)#switchport access vlan 37
cat1-3550#sh vlan brief
37 VLAN0037 active Fa0/22
cat1-3550#sh vlan brief
37 VLAN0037 active Fa0/22

Team,
When configuring and assigning a port to a vlan I usually do the following:
s1#c
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
s1(config)#int f0/24
s1(config-if)#switch mode access
s1(config-if)#switch access vlan 37
% Access VLAN does not exist. Creating vlan 37
I never need to go into the vlan dbase to create the vlan first. This has
always worked for me. Does anyone know if this approach creates any
undesirable side
effects.
Thanks,
JDC

Alec,
creating vlan and assigning vlan to a port is two different thing.
when you create a vlan you do
vlan database
vlan 10 name test bla bla bla
exit
when you assign a vlan to a port you do
conf t
int fa0/1
switchport access vlan 10
end
what it means by not able to create a vlan is the first one. Only the VTP
server can create vlan and
the information is flooded to all vtp client. Now on the client just need to
assign the vlan to the
interface.
Hope that's clear enough for you.

Please respond to

Hi group,
I'm a newcomer in groupstudy and confused by the VTP client mode. From
cisco
documentation, a switch running VTP client mode can not create VLAN. So how
can the VTP server switch instructs the client to add a VLAN to its
customer-facing port, say adding VLAN 500 to 12/1 ? It seems there is no
field for slot/port in the VTP messages. Please correct me if my
interpretation was wrong. Thanks.
regards,
alec
