Hi, I would like to set up a seperate Guest Wi-Fi access to the internet only. The configuration diagram posted by DaneA here shows what I would like to do, substituting
- - SSID: Dennis, VLAN ID: 1, Wireless Client Security Separation: Enabled - for full access to network
- - SSID: Guest, VLAN ID: 250, Wireless Client Security Separation: Disabled - access to the internet only
I don't need a wired connection to Guest just Wi-Fi.
I have never setup a VLAN configuration before and could use some help.
I am overwelmed by the VLAN settings available in the ProSafe Plus Configuration Utility for the JGS516PE switch, just don't know where to begin; Port Based, 802.1Q, Basic, Advanced, Tagged, Untagged? Please help me.
I have set up FVS336 and WNDAP360 as listed above, not sure if that is correct/suficient.
Basically if you wanted to create multiple VLANs to passthrough on a single port or Trunk. For VLAN aware devices such as switch, access point, router, VOIP Phone, etc.), the port should be set to T or Tagged under specific VLAN membership and for non-VLAN aware devices(like printers, hub, PC, etc.), the port should be set to U or Untagged under specified VLAN membership then set the PVID to specific VLAN.
e.g.
JGS516PE VLAN 802.1Q Advanced VLAN Membership...
VLAN 1 All ports - U (Default)
VLAN 250:
- Port 1 - T (WNDAP360)
- Port 2 - T (WAC720)
- If you wanted a PC to be a member of VLAN 250, You may set the port to U, then assign PVID 250.
- Port 16 - T (Firewall)
In thinking for posting my question above, and reading (again & again) the Web Managed Switches guide, it looks like I need to go into the 802.1Q Advanced settings because I don't want my VLANs configured by ports instead I want multiple VLAN activity through the same ports.
My JGS516PE (Web Managed Switch) configuration...
Port 1 - Wi-Fi AP (WNDAP360)
Port 2 - Wi-Fi AP (WAC720)
Port 3-15 - Misc wired network devices
Port 16 - upstream to FVS336 Port-4 (Firewall Router)
Still very confused with the tagged / untagged / blank port configuration.

It appears the settings you suggested are working just as I was hoping.
In my testing when connected to my "Dennis" Wi-Fi, ipconfig shows I am connected to my primary network (192.168.90.xx) and I have access to my network devices. When connected to "Guest", ipconfig shows connected to 192.168.100.xx and no network decies appear.
