For me the concept of management vlan only exists in L2 switches. It is the
vlan through which you manage the switch.
In L3 switches like in routers, you can choose any of the vlans/subnets for
management. You may even create one specialy for management,

Richard,
How about in the case of a Layer 3 switch. Like the 3550.
A layer 2 switch will allow you to configure only 1 interface vlan with an
ip address. So this one will be your management vlan because you will be
able to telnet, snmp etc... to this ip address. An it can be what ever vlan
you wish.
To change the native vlan on a dot1q trunk you just do it when you configure
the trunk. I don't know of any way to do it globally, but it might exist
though,

Hi all,
Confused regarding the following issue:
Normally (before changing defaults) vlan 1 will act as native, default and
management vlan. I was asking if there is a command to change the default
vlan globally same as the one used to change the native vlan ??
Also I believe there is no meaning for the concept of management vlan if ip
routing is enabled on the switch, as I will be reachable via the running
IGP. Am I right ??
If routing is not enabled on the switch, would the management vlan be any
vlan with ip address (or it has to be vlan 1 ???) plus ip default gateway
command pointing to a router connected to the switch ??
Thanks in advance,
Karim.
