Camera/NAS VLAN on GS728TPv2 not working
Hello,
I have a GS728TPv2 and would like to set up a VLAN for my POE cameras and NAS. I would like the NAS to be able to access the internet so I can view the camera streams and recordings and would like the cameras to feed into the NAS but not connect to the internet. I've tried the VLAN setup below but it is not working - I can log into the NAS but the cameras show as disconnected. Note that when testing on the same VLAN with all ports untagged and PVIDs the same everything works fine (but cameras are exposed to internet which I would prefer not to have). Is there anything I can do to make this work? Thanks!
VLAN 1 - Default (internet)
port1 - untagged - PVID1 - connected to router
port23 - untagged - PVID1 - connected to NAS
VLAN20 - cams
port19 - untagged - PVID20 - connected to camera
port21 - untagged - PVID20 - connected to camera
port23 - untagged - PVID1 - connected to NAS

Perhaps what you'll need to do is to have a traffic rule set on your firewall to block incoming traffic from the WAN going to the IP addresses of your cameras.

Hello, thank you for the reply. This same exact setup worked perfectly with a smaller plus managed switch without needing to change firewall or router settings. Is there a reason why it is not working with the GS728TPv2 switch?

Yes. The config isn't a plain VLAN design strictly isolating the VLAN. Much more it is an Asymmetric VLAN config. The odd thing is that all the UIs allow this [in strict IEEE 802.1q sense] invalid config.
