Simple VLAN between two Switches
I have two GS108T switches. I try to setup a new VLAN in addition to the default VLAN1. I want one port on the first switch to be a member of my new VLAN (called 10) communicating with a single port ...
Thanks for reply. I have found the problem. It's kind of embarrasing. I had the trunk cable in the wrong port on one of the switches. Now my VLAN works just fine.
Thanks again.
Hello Hokerberg,
Welcome to the community! :)
It seems you have configured the 2 switches correctly. Let us isolate the problem. On Switch 1, set ports 1 and 7 as members of VLAN 10 and set it as untagged ports with PVID=10. Connect PC1 on port 1 and connect PC2 on port 7. Set a static IP address on both PCs within the same IP range. Then on PC1, ping the static IP address of PC2 and vice versa. Are you able to get replies from each PC?
Do the same procedure on Switch 2. Let us know the results.
What is the current firmware version of both GS108T switches?
