Tagging/Untagging stacking-ports

[oheli1]

Hello together,

I still got no answer on my questions, so I will ask again in this new discussion:

How must these specific stacking-ports be marked?

a) Currently I have U(ntagged) all used VLANS (about 10 VLANs) on all 12 stacking-ports.

b) PVIDs are set to Default_VLAN_1

c) Our management_VLAN is ID_100

It works so far but I have some problems in my network and I want to rule out that the reason for this is a misconfigured stack.

it would be very nice if someone could answer that.

Best regards

Eli

@oheli1,

Welcome to our community! 🙂 

Stacking port is neither tagged or untagged. It does not affect the VLANs on your network because this will only make your 2 switches as one.

May I know what seems to be the problem?

Hi John,

thank you for your support.

Our problem is, that we have a very unstable WLAN-Network in our School.

I already changed all WNDAP 360 into WAC720 (Controller is a WC7600v2).

Sometimes the connection to the devices is very fast (as i should be) sometimes I disable and enable WLAN on (Mac/iPhones/Thinkpads ..) many times. And if I'm lucky, it connects to the desired WLAN-ID. 

Therefore I startet to check all settings (also these which have been set years ago).

I didn't find any tipps in the documentation about this topic.

One more question: what about PVID

Should it set to default (ID1) or should it also be kept empty?

Best regards

@oheli1,

Thank you for that information. PVID configuration is where you want the untagged ports to go on a specific VLAN. But if your devices are all VLAN aware, then you just need to assign the ports to tagged or trunk.
