SXR50 Tagged VLAN goup on WAN

Hello all,

 

I would like to make a tagged VLAN group on the WAN port (ID 4 and 6, per requirement of ISP, 4 = IPTV and 6 = Internet). This would result in the eth0.4 and eth0.6 interfaces. I have only managed to assign one VLAN to the WAN port so far (ID 6), so internet is working fine but IPTV is not. I can't seem to get the eth0.4 AND eth0.6 working on the WAN port. Please note that bridged-itv is NOT an option (ISP doesn't allow this).

 

Can someone tell me if this is possible on the SXR50, and if so, how?

 

With kind regards,

 

Marten

    Would it be possible to post the ISP instructions regarding how to set up the link?

    (I am familiar with lots of ISPs requiring a VLAN for IPTV, but usually that is all they say.)

    Thanks

    1. Assume port 1 is WAN. Port 2 is connected with IPTV device

    2. Assign a profile with VID=6 to port 1.

    3. Assign "IPTV" profile with VID=4 to port 2

     

    So, internally Port 1 and Port 2 will be added to the same bridge. Other port will be in LAN bridge.

     

    Check if that works.

      Ok, I will try to explain the ISP requirements as clearly as possible.

      - Tagged traffic should only be used on the WAN port. From there, all traffic should be untagged.
      - An IGMP proxy should be set up on the WAN port, where downstream = VLAN6 BUT upstream for certain IP ranges should be routed through VLAN4 with static routes. It should have alternate-subnet set to '0.0.0.0/0'.
      - VLAN4 should use DHCP with option 60 set to 'IPTV_RG' and option 28 set to '192.168.1.255'. It should ask for a 'classless ip'.
      - Nat should be enabled for traffic for ranges 213.75.112.0/21 and 217.166.0.0/16 between VLAN4 and the internal network.

      Is this possible, albeit with some config modifications through telnet (which I have already enabled on the Orbi)?

      A nice puzzle! 😄

      Assigning VLAN4 to port 2 will not work since the IPTV box should be in the same network as it also requires internet access. Furthermore the ISP does not allow bridged IPTV.

        Hi 

         

        We are internally discussing. If you have a network topology diagram, that would help us understand better. will get back to you.
