GS308T configure asymmetric VLAN

It was a while ago that someone had a asymmetric VLAN configured and working on these switches. I found it in this thread.

I tried the configuration with newest firmware 1.0.5.5 and I am unable to replicate it. I am wondering if anyone here has been able to do it.

 

  •   I have managed to get things working. In may scenario I wanted following,

     

    VLAN1 (default) port 1 connects to the router. Port 2 connects to local DNS server.

    VLAN10 port 3 connects to my local admin/main computer.

    VLAN20 ports 4-5 connects to Smart TV's

    VLAN30 port 6 connects to work only PC.

     

    FYI, all devices use local DNS

    typical mistake is that people try it with just two VLAN - while one does need three.

      I wanted to go further with this configuration and limit VLAN1 to only ports 7-8.

      I plugged my PC to port 8 and started the config. I created new VLAN55 and assigned it to ports 1-6. Setup new PVID of 55 to ports 1-6.

       

      At this point I logged off, connected PC to port 3 and have internet access.

      All devices works fine.

       

      ISSUE:

      Going back and plugging my PC directly to port 8 I am unable to access switch GUI pages.

       

      Does anyone have an idea why is that?
