MS510TXM need some general assistance with Routing config
Hello everyone! I'm running a MS510TXM with fw 1.0.5.10. I'm trying to get VLAN routing working and I'm having trouble. From all subnets/VLANS (tagged & untagged) I can see the gateway addre...
Yes, technically feasible - and the horror for IT security exposing multiple VLAN to workstation connections. That's why its not a great idea. If you need VLAN 10 on a port, then configure it as an access port with VLAN 10 [U]ntagged, PIVD 10 - and no other VLANs enabled on this switch port.
This is for a home lab, and the Lab Internet router is actually behind the main home Internet router, with a firewall between them. I'm not worried about security at this point. I'm just trying to duplicate most of the features of a corporate infrastructure for testing, cert prep, etc.
Back to my question though, what can I look at for insight into why I can't go from the untagged side to a tagged side? Traffic the other way seems to be flowing ok.

Tell us more about your test case, the scenario, ... what does work, and what does not work? The IPv4 traffic must flow through the switch, it does (in my opinion) not matter on how test systems are working with the IP subnets, as long as the networks are workable and configured correct.
Remember my original proposal to bring up some access ports for testing the subnets and the routing?
Is there anything in the config of my particular switch that designates a port as an access port? I see how I can assign vlan(s) to an interface, but not access vs trunk. Is that a command-line option?
When I'm talking about an access port its a port configured (exclusively) [U]ntagged for the VLAN required, and the port PVID is set to the same VLAN ID.
At the and of the day, it does not matter if you connect your test systems on tagged trunks or some dedicated test systems to an access port. Appears you have plenty of VMs able to connect and talking to the VLANs, with some VMs ready to test the IP networking and subnetting including the IP routing.
