VLAN Configuration when you have a Switch in your Network?

Hi I have the SXK80 Router and Ethernet Port 1 is connected to Modem(Internet) which has default VLAN 1 assigned and Ethernet Port 2 is connected to a 4 port switch and configured to VLAN 2. Port 3...

Hey Bruce

So router is in Router Mode

To simplyfy :

Port 1 = Connected to ISP Modem = VLAN ID 1 (Trunk Mode)

Port 2 = Connected to an unmanaged 4 port Switch = VLAN ID 2 (Trunk Mode)

- SWITCH PORT 1 = CCTV

- SWITCH PORT 2 = HIVE Heating

- SWITCH PORT 3 = Printer

- SWITCH PORT 4 = EMPTY

Port 3 = Connected to PC 1 = VLAN ID 3 (Access Mode)

Port 4 = Connected to PC 2 = VLAN ID 4 (Access Mode)

I assume I cannot assign VLAN's to the devices on the Switch and would require a Managed switch? The Orbi Pro cannot do this?

Also if I want to set specific rules on Inter-VLAN communication, i cannot do this as Jerald mentioned

Hope this makes sense

Hi NemoNeil,

Just would like to clarify regarding the inter-VLAN routing on the SXR80.

All VLANs should be able to communicate if network isolation is disabled for all VLANs, please see screenshot below:

Now, when network isolation of any of the VLANs are enabled, those cannot communicate with the other VLANs on the network anymore.

Adding to that, the Orbi Pro only does port-based VLANs and not 802.1Q VLANs.

Apologies on my previous reply as it was vague and I hope this clarifies it.

Please let us know if you have further concerns.

Regards,

JeraldM

Hi JeraldM,
Today I created a wireless and LAN VLAN, and moved all my cameras to an IoT VLAN, (192.168.30.1). I unchecked both client and network isolation, under Advanced Settings/VLAN / Bridge Settings. However, I could never bring up the cameras from the default VLAN.
I also discovered that none of the cameras are reachable from the WIFI network related to the IoT VLAN, (192.168.30.1). Any input would be appreciated. I am on the beta 4.2.1.106, which may be my issue.

  Hi Mstrbig,
  
  Just to clarify, the cameras cannot establish a connection whenever they're connected to the default VLAN or the IoT VLAN?
  
  If that would be the case, did this issue occur when you updated the system with the beta FW?

    IoT VLAN. No, I had the same issue before the beta. All other devices work great. All Echo devices, 3rd party smart devices, TVs, Amps, Lights, etc. However, the cameras show up in the GUI with the proper IP address and good signal, but will not produce video on any PC, App, etc. I tried to achieve it on multiple WIFI networks and hard line.
