Trunk between Cisco and Netgear

Hello,

After fiddling with this I got it going using Advanced VLAN 802.1q.

I think VLAN 1 has to exist but as I had been fiddling with this for hours I didn't want to risk removing it entirely.

Port 1 is my uplink.

Port 3, 4, 5 are links, each to different VLANs.

As using VLAN 1 is a no-no because it's usually the default everywhere I will give an example of mysetup using 11, 12, 13, and 14.

Cisco config real quickly:

usps#show run int gi 1/22
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 196 bytes

interface GigabitEthernet1/22
description wifi-uplink
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 11
switchport trunk allowed vlan 11-14
switchport mode trunk
end

VLAN > 802.1q > Advanced > Port Configuration:

VLAN > 802.1q > Advanced > VLAN Membership:

VLAN ID 1: Port 2 (Untagged)

VLAN ID 11: Port 1 (Untagged)

VLAN ID 12: Port 1 (Tagged), Port 3 (Untagged)

VLAN ID 13: Port 1 (Tagged), Port 4 (Untagged)

VLAN ID 14: Port 1 (Tagged), Port 5 (Untagged)

VLAN > 802.1q > Advanced > Port PVID:

Hope this helps anyone else going forward.

There is just one issue. The IP I gave it which is on VLAN 11 takes 6 to 7 times longer than the other VLANs. Ports 3, 4, 5 connect to devices. I'm using this like an edge switch. So I average about 0.25ms from my core switch to the devices on port 3, 4, and 5 respectively. But I'm at about 2ms from my core switch to the Netgear switch. It makes no sense, I probably have something messed up somewhere but not sure where.

Regardless as the edge devices have low latency and everything is just fine, no packet loss, loops or drops, I'm good as I got what I wanted. A Cisco trunk w/ 802.1q tagging and a native working.
