no switchport mode dynamic desirable

mode access to mode trunk

I got a Cisco 2950 swicth where a port is configured "access vlan 54". I want to make vlan 54 native on this and put a vlan 150 over it.

I then have to enter something like:

 interface FastEthernet0/4  description vers switch admin1 fa0/17  switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q  switchport trunk native vlan 54  switchport trunk allowed vlan 54,150  no cdp enable 
Unfortunately, when runnnig the configuration, I get:
 interface FastEthernet0/4  description vers switch admin1 fa0/17  switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q  switchport trunk native vlan 54  switchport trunk allowed vlan 54,150  switchport mode dynamic desirable  no cdp enable 
Whatever I tried, I always got the "switchport mode dynamic desirable"...

no, then mode trunk

The solution was to negate the dynamic and directly force trunk. I entered the configuration in this order:

 interface FastEthernet0/4  no  switchport mode dynamic desirable  switchport mode trunk  switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q  switchport trunk native vlan 54  switchport trunk allowed vlan 54,150  no cdp enable 
I'm done!

Undefined global vim

Defining vim as global outside of Neovim When developing plugins for Neovim, particularly in Lua, developers often encounter the "Undefined global vim" warning. This warning can be a nuisance and disrupt the development workflow. However, there is a straightforward solution to this problem by configuring the Lua Language Server Protocol (LSP) to recognize 'vim' as a global variable. Getting "Undefined global vim" warning when developing Neovim plugin While developing Neovim plugins using Lua, the Lua language server might not recognize the 'vim' namespace by default. This leads to warnings about 'vim' being an undefined global variable. These warnings are not just annoying but can also clutter the development environment with unnecessary alerts, potentially hiding other important warnings or errors. Defining vim as global in Lua LSP configuration to get rid of the warning To resolve the "Undefined global vi...

LazyGit AI Commit Message

Having AI‑generated commit messages directly integrated into LazyGit If you use LazyGit every day, you already know how it turns Git from a chore into something you can actually enjoy. But there is one part of the workflow that still tends to feel a bit tedious: writing good commit messages. In this post, I show how to plug OpenAI models directly into LazyGit using a tiny one‑file BASH script, so you can get AI‑generated commit messages based on your actual diffs, without waiting for external tools to catch up with the new OpenAI Responses API . The result is a minimal, focused tool you can drop into your setup today: lgaicm . It behaves like a mini aichat that does exactly one thing: generate commit messages from Git diffs, optimized for LazyGit. Why AI‑generated commit messages in LazyGit? Commit messages matter. They are the stor...

CopilotChat GlobFile Configuration

CopilotChat GlobFile Configuration Want to feed multiple files into GitHub Copilot Chat from Neovim without listing each one manually? Let's add a tiny feature that does exactly that: a file glob that includes full file contents . In this post, we'll walk through what CopilotChat.nvim offers out of the box, why the missing piece matters, and how to implement a custom #file_glob:<pattern> function to include the contents of all files matching a glob. Using Copilot Chat with Neovim CopilotChat.nvim brings GitHub Copilot's chat right into your editing flow. No context switching, no browser hopping — just type your prompt in a Neovim buffer and let the AI help you refactor code, write tests, or explain tricky functions. You can open the chat (for example) with a command like :CopilotChat , then provide extra context using built-in functions. That “extra context” is where the magic really happens. Built-in functio...
