Cannot create private VLAN (PVLAN)

The private VLAN (PVLAN) cannot be created.

Possible Cause

The private-vlan feature is not enabled.

Solution

The private-vlan feature must be enabled prior to PVLAN configuration, which makes the PVLAN command available. Use the show feature command to determine which features are enabled.

Example:

 switch(config)# feature private-vlan
 switch(config)# show feature
 Feature Name          Instance  State  
 --------------------  --------  --------
 tacacs                1         disabled
 lacp                  1         enabled
 interface-vlan        1         enabled
 private-vlan          1         enabled
 udld                  1         enabled
 vpc                   1         enabled
 fcoe                  1         disabled
 fex                   1         enabled
