VLAN Issue - Cannot provision VLAN's
Seasons greetings! I've had a JGS524Ev2, latest 2.6.0.48 firmware, since May of this year, and finally have a firewall that can easily support VLANs to go along with it. When trying to create a d...
- Dec 24, 2020Ah, good find! That's why the basic config did not worked then, too. I just prefer the Advanced one as it's easier to see and understand - less hidden stuff.
Use a different browser, ensure no Internet security *** does interfere with the JavaScript code.
Never had to, but try to use the anonymous mode session.

Thanks for the advice. This is my first time dealing with VLANs.
My main problem is that it seems the configuration doesn't actually get saved to the switch. For example, when I use the advanced mode for 802.1q, I'll add my tag under Configuration, then move to membership to add the ports to the VLAN. Once I click "Apply", the screen bugs out, and my changes are not applied when re-selecting the VLAN I was editing. If I use 802.1q Basic, it just seems to not do anything! If I add a port to say VLAN 10, I expect to get an IP from that VLAN, but will still get an IP from my LAN network. Yes, DHCP is running on each VLAN interface.

Not sure why I didn't think to use a different browser. Switched to Chrome from Firefox and the issue resolved itself (as far as I can tell). I'm now able to set a VLAN and get a DHCP address from the server. Thanks for your help! Sometimes the simplest fixes are the hardest to come by. ;)

Have no JGS524PE / JGS524Ev2 at hand - several Smart Managed Plus switches with the very similar Web UI allow handling 802.1Q VLAN in advanced mode flawlessly using Firefox 84.0.1 (64-bit) on a Windows 10 system.
Worth a try might be dropping the browser cache next time. it's certainly required when migration to the multi-language versions.
Happy you have it running as expected. Merry Xmas!
