VLAN Configuration
Hi, I have installed a new network in our office to start implementing VLANs. We have today 3 Switches (2x GS724T connected to VMware ESXi Hosts) and (1x GS748T connected to all Laptops and our...
Hi Issen,
Welcome to the community! :)
Based from the firmware version 6.3.1.11 you have mentioned, it seems that you have GS748Tv5 and GS724Tv4 switches. Kindly answer the questions below:
a. How is everything connected? Kindly post an image or screenshot of your detailed network setup.
b. Is the port connecting the GS748T to the firewall set to tagged with a PVID=1 and member of all VLANs?
You may check this link as reference guide.

Hi Dane,
Thanks for the welcome.
Yes the models is GS748Tv5 and GS724Tv4.
I have try to attach a small visio picture as an overview.
But where Port 27 is my "Guest Network Port" are using Untagged VLAN 97 and on port 40, 49 and 50 I used Tagged.
Also on port 27 have I used PVID 97 to really say it should be on that VLAN.
Port 40 goes to my Watchguard XTM Firewall/Router where I also have VLAN 97 configured as Tagged VLAN.
And to verify that VLAN doesn't work on the NetGear did I configured one interface on my GS724Tv4 with VLAN97 and static IP on both my laptop and the server. And I can't ping between them.
I will look at your link tomorrow.
Thanks

Hi Issen,
Just kindly check the link and that might help.
Also, is VLAN routing configured on the GS748Tv5? What I think is the ping reaches the gateway, have you tried to configure a default route?

Hi Dane,
I follow the link you sent me but that didn't work.
I have also add the Route in my IP settings but it doesn't work, and I have try to ping in the same VLAN without jumping to the Watchguard.
It seams like VLAN between Switch and Switch doesn't work.
Any more test I can try? Or should I open a Support ticket?

Hi Issen,
Let us isolate the problem if VLAN does not really work on the NETGEAR switches. Kindly do the steps below:
a. Disconnect the GS748Tv5 from the existing network then perform a factory reset on the GS748Tv5.
b. Configure VLAN 97 then set ports 15-20 as members of VLAN 97 with PVID of 97.
c. Connect 2 PCs within ports 15-20. Set a static IP address on the 2 PCs that is within the same range. For example: 192.168.97.x/24 where x is any number.
d. Open command prompt on the 2 PCs and check if you will get a reply when you ping the static IP address from PC1 to PC2 and vice versa.
e. Kindly repeat same steps from above for the GS724Tv4 switches.
However, you may open an online case with NETGEAR Support here at anytime. The support team will provide with further technical assistance.
