How to configure Dell N2024 or N2048 to use a specific vLAN tag

In this tutorial you will learn how to configure your Dell N2024 or N2048 to use a specific vLAN tag. We will configure a switch port as port access afterwards assign a specific vLAN ID to the switch port.

Let’s get started.

Step 1: Use your Console Cable or SSH into your Dell N2024 or N2048 switch using Putty

Step 2: After you have access type in enable and your password. Once logged in type in config.

console>enable

console#config

Step 3: Now decide which ports you want bind a specific vLAN to on your Dell N2024 switch. In this use case I will focus on switch port 2.

Step 4: Now we will select the interface / port we want to apply our settings.

console(config)#interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

Step 5: Now that you have the port selected, we will change the port mode to access.

console(config-if-Gi1/0/2)#switchport mode access

Step 6: This following command will assign a specific vLAN ID to the switch port.

console(config-if-Gi1/0/2)#switchport access vlan 220

Step 8: Save the changes to your switch config and you’re finished.

console(config-if-Gi1/0/24)#exit
console(config)#exit
console#wr
