Vlan mapping on 6500

[sean baker]

Hi

I'm looking to implement VLAN mapping for a proof of concept between two Cisco 6500.

One is running old Catos & the other IOS.

Config will look like this - does this look correct?

6500 CATOS

Interface gi1/2/1

set switchport mode trunk

set trunk encapsulation dot.1q

Set Switchport vlan mapping 101 561

6500 IOS

Interface gi1/2/1

switchport mode trunk

switchport trunk encapsulation dot.1q

switchport vlan mapping enable

Switchport vlan mapping 561 101

on both switches do i need to prune all other vlans except for the ones i want to map?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Sean,

as far as I remember CatOS does not support configuration contexts.

there is no configuration environment you can use set commands or show commands but without entering a specific interface just to make an example. Also interfaces had no names just like 1/1 and so on.

So I do not think your CatOS config template will work on the real device.

In addition, Vlan mapping may be a too new feature to be supported on the old device with CatOS.

I try to attach a configuration file for CatOS so that you can see what can be done.

Hope to help
