The multi-VLAN port feature on Catalyst 2900XL/3500XL Switches allows you to configure a single port in two or more VLANs. This feature allows users from different VLANs to access a server or router without the implementation of inter-VLAN routing capability. A multi-VLAN port performs normal switching functions in all of its assigned VLANs. VLAN traffic on the multi-VLAN port is not encapsulated as it is in trunking.
Note: These are the limitations to the implementation of multi-VLAN port features:
- You cannot configure a multi-VLAN port when a trunk is configured on the switch. You can connect the multi-VLAN port only to a router or server. The switch automatically transitions to VTP transparent mode when the multi-VLAN port feature is enabled, which disables the VTP. No VTP configuration is necessary.
- The multi-VLAN port feature is supported only on Catalyst 2900XL/3500XL Series Switches. This feature is not supported on Catalyst 4500/4000, 5500/5000, or 6500/6000 Series Switches or any other Catalyst switches.
- Determine which port to configure as a multi-VLAN port.
Here, three VLANs are created on a Catalyst 3512XL Switch, and one port of the switch is connected to an external router. This example configures the port that is connected to the router as a multi-VLAN port.

- Issue the ping command from the switch to the router in order to verify the multi-VLAN operation.
The ping command receives a reply from the router each time the management IP address is assigned to any of the VLANs 1, 2, or 3.
