I am looking to enable a Management VLAN using a Passport 8600 switch. Can I set a port to be a member of more than one VLAN, or will I need to multi-home all of our servers? If anyone has any references on how to do this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Gordon
 
If your server understands 802.1Q VLANS, you can tag a 8600 port to it for more than one VLAN.

I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
 
hi
If u have IP based vlan's then u can make u r ports the potiential member i.e what ever pkt it recieves by seeing its header it will route the paket to that vlan Hitender
Best Of luck
Try & Try Till U succedd and update others on u r achievments
 
You can have 1 type of VLAN per Port. ex.) you can have a port based and a protocol based vlan on the same port.
If you want 2 of the same type of VLANS you have to trunk(802.1Q.
Hope this helps. My suggestions are what I would try myself. If incorrect, I welcome corrections to my knowledge.
