M4300- multiple VLANs connected to GS510PP
Hello,
I'd to connect port 48 of an m4300 to port 1 of a GS510tpp. I have 5 vlans. VLAN 10 is my default vlan for all wiring e.g. servers, switches etc.
I can't seem to figure out how to connect the two so they can pass more than one vlan. All the vlans work on my m4300 rack but I don't know the correct way to set them on on the GS510. I've added the VLANS. I'm not sure if I go some place to trunk or should adjust my pvid page selections.

No matter what systems you fancy for trunking (Managed M4300, managed M4250, managed M4350, or Smart managed switches like a GS510PP, or a plus switch like e.g. a gs308E for example, make all VLANs on the port (or for sake the LAG is multiple links are required) [T]aged. Your homework is to figure out on how this was configured before.
The PVID has only relevance to define the VLAN you want incoming untagged frames to be assigned to on the switch. Should this be an untagged (access-port-like) defined as [U]ntagged, this will make the frames from that VLAN coming out on the port (or LAG) untagged.
Write down what you want exactly on the trunk, for example like VLAN 2, Tagged; VLAN 3 Tagged, .... VLAN 10 Untagged Access port, with PVID 10.
Thanks - Anyone know where to go to make it work and what settings to change? I'm starting from scratch so nothing has changed.
I'm happy to share picatures.
I got it working a year ago and forgot to document it - I need to get it working again.
VLAN 10 is our default vlan for wired data
The firewall is the DHCP server, that is connected to an M4300It is connected on port 8 of the M4300
This is the GS510Tpp
It is connected on port 1 of the GS510p
I've tried numerous combinations but can't seem to get it to pass traffic or get a dhcp address. Anyone connected two netgear switches with multiple vlans?
Something wrong on the 4300 port 1/0/0 and 1/0/8 both shown untagged for VLAN 10 and 60 ...
Yes it works, but only one VLAN cab ve used untagged on a port, while other VLANs must be configured as Tagged on a trunk
OK on the m4300 I have port 8 connected to port 1 on the GS510.
M4300
GS510
I've also tried - M4300
neither one got the little switch an IP from the DHCP server it is set for DHCP.
How should that GS510T[xxx] port #1 now connect to the VLAN 10? The GS510T[xxx] seems to be defined using an access port (Untagged)?
The first iteration on the M4300 looks wrong (as it's using the VLAN 10 tagged on port 8); while the second one appears to be about right with untagged and PVID for VLAN 10.
When connecting a computer without any special local config to the adapter (except of an active DHCP client), will this PC get an IP address assigned from the DHCP server, which must reside on the VLAN 10 boradcast domain? How, and on which VLAN is the DHCP server (typically your router) connected?
Thanks - I contacted netgear and they spent a lot of time scratching their head too. For some reason the switch was no longer getting DHCP. Everything else on the network gets dhcp no problem but the switch had some glitch even though it had been working over a year. I put a static IP on it and it worked fine.
Wild idea: Have configured by accident the Management VLAN on the MS510T[xxx}? This would require of course a tagged connection for the VLAN serving DHCP to that switch.
