What you designate as LAN ports are simply so called access ports for VLAN 1, configured accordingly as only [U]ntagged port and with the PVID set to 1.
Simar the ports you defined with the long name 802.1Q VLAN 3000 and 3001 will serve as access ports, set for [U]ntagged 3000 PVID 3000 resp. [U]ntagged 3001 PVID 3001, so becoming LAN ports 3000 or 3001.

Hi schumaku ,
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I was wondering about the 'untagged vlans' provided by the switch, especially the 'default untagged vlan' 1 ...
I think I get your point on trunking thru automatic vlan 1 (untagged) because the management interface requires it ...
Sounds like a vital hint to me.
Thanks again for all the tips. I'll make another post when I actually try it ... right now it's all just a pile of modules and some cables sitting on an old coffee table ... I am probably a good example of a highly ineffective person ...
Take care, and ... I'll be back ...
