4 independent networks in one XS728T
Hi! I want to set up 4 independent networks on one XS728T. (In fact I have two of them. I have four separate networks and I would like to overcome longer distances by fiber cables.) I therefore conf...
Hello Kurt!
I today found time to move on. I changed the wrong PVID but the problem is still present. As soon as I connect the cables, I lose the connection to one of the switches (the left one on the photo). Could you please look into for me once more? I pulled the configs of both switches.There is one difference I would be happy you could tell me where I can change it: "switchport general pvid 200" at line 277.

Stephan,
As long as you aware of the STP/RSTP and it's potential problems...a true global network wide STP or RSTP requires some careful design and planning.
If you think RSTP would be sufficient, and have no larger scale network admins to deal with, you better consider configure MSTP for each of your VLANs.
VLAN and PVID config looks ok now.
Of course, you can combine two XS7xxT and run a trunk with all VLANs, if more bandwidth is required have an eye into the LAG config possibilities. In case these are XS7xxT only, go for dynamic LACPs, nd don't forget to configure the LAG similar to the single ports.
Enjoy, and keep asking - always happy to help here!
