Newbie to VLANs - GS308Ev4
All Before I get into any detail around what I want to achieve long term, I have a very basic question.... please bear with, as first time I am trying to setup a VLAN... having looked at many sit...
Port based VLAN on GS308Ev4 will work in this type of example:
Three VLANs:
VLAN1
VLAN2
VLAN3
PC1 connected to port 1
PC2 connected to port 2
PC3 connected to port 3
Assign port 1 as your uplink to a non-vlan aware router.
This port 1 will have the following port based tagging:
Router > Port 1 PVID = 1 untagged VLAN 1, Tagged VLANs 2 and 3
PC1 > Port 2 PVID = 1 untagged VLAN 1
PC2 > Port 3 PVID = 2 untagged VLAN 2
PC3 > Port 4 PVID = 3 untagged VLAN 3
Note: PC2 and PC3 must be set to static IP in the same subnet of the VLAN aware router as we expect that there is no other DHCP server to supply the other VLANs.
For example: Router DHCP subnet is 192.168.1.0
PC1 IP gets DHCP from router, i.e. 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
PC2 IP set to static IP of 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
PC3 IP set to static IP of 192.168.1.4 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
Hope this helps.
