VLAN Trunking across multiple GS748T (and other switches)
Hi, We have a setup with a number of Netgear switches (two are GS748Tv5) and I want to create a VLAN, let's say 10 which is present on both switches. What I want is ports 1,2,3 and 4 on Switc...
Hi mattstannard,
You configuration seems all right but port pvid not sure.
Can you help to check port pvid for ports (1,2,3 and 4) on Switch A and (5,6,7 and 8) Switch B. If not 10 please change it to 10.
We can change port pvid at "Switching>vlan>Port PVID Configuration"
Any result keep us posted.

Hi Carl,
Thank you for replying so promptly.
Okay, so I've made a test VLAN 5
Switch A:
Port 39 goes to Switch B, and the one port I want to be a member of VLAN 5 on Switch A is port 44
I take port 44 out of the default VLAN 1 (but not port 39)
As where I am managing it from is plugged into Switch A, I can no longer see the device on Port 44 at this point, which is what I would expect.
Looking at the PVID Config:
Port 44 has a Configured PVID of 1, Current PVID of 1, VLAN Member of 5 - should the PVID be 5 and VLAN tag of none (should it be 5?)
Port 39 has a Configured PVID of 1, Current PVID of 1, VLAN Member of 1,5, and VLAN tag of 5 - I want this to still be in VLAN 1
On switch B
Same VLAN setup:
Then on the VLAN side, port 48 is the port to Switch A (tagged) and I want ports 1 and ports 6 in VLAN 5:
The PVID Configuration is as follows:
Are you able to suggest what changes I need to make?
Many thanks

Hi mattstannard,
Sorry for late to back,but today is really a busy day.
Switch A
Change Port 44 pvid to 5.
Switch B
Change Ports 1 and Port 6 to 5.
All the other configurations are all right .
Apply the changes above and check how things go. Anything in trouble keep us posted .

Hi Carl,
Thank you.
So when I do this, I can see the device which is fine, but I want whats plugged into Switch B to be on two VLANs.
Basically, I have 10 devices that generate a lot of broadcast traffic, I want these on VLAN5 on Switch A.
On Switch B I want to be able to see VLAN5, but also be connected to VLAN1 as that's where the rest of the network is and so when I changed the PVID I could see my deivces but could no longer browse the internet.
Is this possible?
Many thanks
