Disparate network, VLANS, DHCP, Assistance
Hi All, I have a disparate network consisting of a Sonicwall router, M4100 switches, Unifi Wifi and I am trying to make it all work. The network has an M4100 24G POE (Firmware Version 10.0.2.13) ...
Just a few notes: In messing with the configuration, I am now seeing VLAN 20 in the address tableindicating that VLAN 20 traffic is passing through this switch. However, I am not seeing the VLAN 20 mac addresses hit the 26G switch, which seems to be the bottleneck at the moment.
Any ideas on configuration that would pass traffic?
The configuration that you attached is appreciated. Also, kindly attach a detailed network diagram of the current network setup you have and the network setup you wanted to implement as this will help community members who will read this thread and be able to post a suggestion to your query.

- Hi DaneA,
I will attach a diagram when I am near the computer again.
I removed all Vlans and readded them back. No dice. I removed vlan 20 and created vlan 30 from scratch. No dice. I finally decided to assign a few static ip's to a few of the equipment and they were able to get out to the internet. I worked with SW support and determined that DHCP packets from the remaining equipment were not reaching the SW. I assigned static ip's to the rest of the equipment (11 devices) and it's all working now. Weird that it works with static ip's and not DHCP. Maybe you all can shed some light on that?
One more oddity. I joined the guest wifi on vlan 44 and was able to DHCP on that vlan. Vlan 44 is set up exactly the same as vlan 30, no DHCP relay or anything like that.
