Cisco Catalyst 2950, Creating a Vlan that works.

I am new to the entire cisco configuring thing but I try and sometimes I run into a few problems. The following I copied from the show conf command within my switch.

I am basically out of ip addresses for the machines on my network so I decided that I would attempt to create a vlan off an old 2950 that I had laying around so that I could get 23 or so extra devices on the network easily. I am now not sure what is wrong but I can't get an ip address when I plug into the ports of the switch and obviously I have port 1 plugged into the main network and from what I can tell ports 2 through 24 I have set to be on the BMWVLAN. Any ideas to which direction or commands that I have forgotten. Any help is appreciated.

What do you mean by
" I can't get an ip address when I plug into the ports of the switch"
Do you mean your pc doesn't get assigned an ip address from the dhcp server?

I am confused by this
"I am basically out of ip addresses for the machines on my network so I decided that I would attempt to create a vlan off an old 2950 that I had laying around so that I could get 23 or so extra devices on the network easily."
Are you out of ip addresses or out of ports? Adding another switch and VLAN won't give you more ip addresses unless you assign a different subnet to the new VLAN and in that case you will need a layer 3 device to route traffic between the separate VLANs.

by jasonnewberger

You, you know...you are absolutely correct I will need a layer 3 device. I am out of ip addresses so I think I will need to get a 2960 or 3560 or equivilent.

by netman1958

A 2960 isn't multilayer. You will need a 3550 or 3560.
