Stacking is supported only on Catalyst 2960-S switches running the LAN base image.
Configuring Normal-Range VLANs
You configure VLANs in vlan global configuration command by entering a VLAN ID. Enter a new
VLAN ID to create a VLAN, or enter an existing VLAN ID to modify that VLAN. You can use the
default VLAN configuration
information about commands available in this mode, see the vlan global configuration command
description in the command reference for this release. When you have finished the configuration, you
must exit VLAN configuration mode for the configuration to take effect. To display the VLAN
configuration, enter the show vlan privileged EXEC command.
The configurations of VLAN IDs 1 to 1005 are always saved in the VLAN database (vlan.dat file). If the
VTP mode is transparent, they are also saved in the switch running configuration file. You can enter the
copy running-config startup-config privileged EXEC command to save the configuration in the startup
configuration file. In a switch stack, the whole stack uses the same vlan.dat file and running
configuration. To display the VLAN configuration, enter the show vlan privileged EXEC command.
When you save VLAN and VTP information (including extended-range VLAN configuration
information) in the startup configuration file and reboot the switch, the switch configuration is selected
as follows:

Default Ethernet VLAN Configuration

The switch supports Ethernet interfaces exclusively. Because FDDI and Token Ring VLANs are not
Note
locally supported, you only configure FDDI and Token Ring media-specific characteristics for VTP
global advertisements to other switches.
OL-26520-01
When a switch in a stack learns a new VLAN or deletes or modifies an existing VLAN (either
through VTP over network ports or through the CLI), the VLAN information is communicated to all
stack members.
When a switch joins a stack or when stacks merge, VTP information (the vlan.dat file) on the new
switches will be consistent with the stack master.
(Table
If the VTP mode is transparent in the startup configuration, and the VLAN database and the VTP
domain name from the VLAN database matches that in the startup configuration file, the VLAN
database is ignored (cleared), and the VTP and VLAN configurations in the startup configuration
file are used. The VLAN database revision number remains unchanged in the VLAN database.
If the VTP mode or domain name in the startup configuration does not match the VLAN database,
the domain name and VTP mode and configuration for the first 1005 VLANs use the VLAN
database information.
In VTP versions 1 and 2, if VTP mode is server, the domain name and VLAN configuration for only
the first 1005 VLANs use the VLAN database information. VTP version 3 also supports VLANs
1006 to 4094.
