VLAN Policy was created by taq
For a dynamic VLAN, in the core switch can we assign a range of ip addresses to a VLAN? For an example :

VLAN 1 : 10.1.1.2 until 10.1.1.20
VLAN 2 : 10.1.2.1 until 10.1.2.20, etc..

So, when a PC with an ip address of 10.1.2.2 plugged to any port in the network, will become a member of VLAN 2.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

dont know If you have the correct meaning of what a dynamic vlan is??

It is a mapping of Mac to Ip address where in a switch (the vmps server) must download a mac to ip to vlan database hosted ina tftp server, once the database is in teh vmps server memory it starts to dynamically assings each new host who enter a switchport by reading the source mac address, the mapped vlan.

So the correct operation is that every frame that enters the switch has no ip address.

So, the MAC to IP mapping is done in the server. What if a new mobile user gets connected. Will the server assigns a new ip address?

TQ.

exactly! in the vmps server who is indeed a switch device.
so if the new mobile devic is plugged into a switch it is again forwarded to the vmps server and cheked if there exist an mac to ip - to vlan if there exist it is applied.
