WNDAP360 VLAN

    I think I may have resolved this. The problem looks to be because I did not assign both vlans to both trunkports. I'd assumed that by marking the port as 'T' it would accept and tag all traffic but you need to visit each vlan and set the trunkport for both vlans (1 & 20 in my case)

     

    You end up with something like this

    >show vlan 20
    ..
    1/0/24      Exclude   Autodetect   Untagged
    1/0/25      Include   Include      Tagged
    1/0/26      Exclude   Autodetect   Untagged
    ...
    >show vlan 1
    ..
    1/0/24      Include   Include      Untagged
    1/0/25      Include   Include      Tagged
    1/0/26      Include   Include      Untagged
    

    Once I set the trunk port on both switches to trunk for both vlans, I could ping from one host to another.

     

    Moreover, the original port I was using as an access port (port 23) refuses to cooperate despite the fact it does do cable tests successfully. I could not get any light or activity from it. This may be because port 25 - 28 are used as uplink and there is also a fibre module in the rear. Perhaps 23 is not available because of that.
    Hope that helps someone in the future.
