HOw do I setup a trunk port on this S330-28x?

I dont see that on my menus.

Hey,

I can understand that you are frustrated, but this switch is perfectly capable of doing VLANs. It is a very capable switch, not bad at all - certainly not "junk" anyway.

It can do access ports and trunk ports with out any issue. Netgear allows you do that two ways normally.

1. Via the "VLAN Trunking Configuration" which falls more in line with traditional ways of configuring (access port mode and trunk port mode).

2. Do the VLAN trunking and access ports manually. Tag/Untag VLANs manually on ports and set PVIDs manually.

I can understand that you don't have option 1 available to you. That is fine. Both option 1 and 2 accomplishes the same thing. Option 1 is likely only available on fully managed switches.

Why don't you tell us a little bit about your config? This way we can perhaps help get it working.

• You are trying to trunk to a core switch.
• What VLANs run on that core switch? In other words what VLANs do you need to trunk between the S3300 and the core switch?
• What config have you done already on the Netgear S3300? Did you create the relevant VLANs? The port that connect to the core, exactly what VLAN config have you done on that port?
• The ports where clients connect to (access ports) did you remember to Untag "U" those ports and set correct PVID?
• The core switch you have. What brand is that? What config did you use on the port that connects to the Netgear S3300?
