Fortigate VLAN to Netgear
Hey everyone, Apologies in advance for a elementary question but I'm stumped. I have a Fortigate 80E and I'm trying to use Netgear switches with this. I've configured port 2 on the FG and I've ...
- The is not much Netgear specific involved. On a trunk, one VLAN can be operated untagged (the PVID setting does define the VLAN where incoming untagged frames ar assigned to - this is the only Ntgr specific thing), all the other VLAN on a trunk must travel tagged.
The same applies to your security applianc for example, too.
To make the trunk work, both ends must be configured the very same way - this is standard.
schumaku Thanks for the reply. I have very limited knowledge on Netgear and how they handle VLANs. I made the assumption that if port 8 (uplink) knew about all of the VLANs (VLAN Membership) that I was advertising from the FGT then I could simply set the PVID to 112 on port 3 (laptop connected) and the computer would associate with that VLAN.
I have played around with specifically tagging (VLAN Tag field) that port to 112 and nothing I am doing will have that computer associate with VLAN 112.
I appreciate any insight you can give.
Best,
Todd
