VLAN ROUTING

I'm a bit lost on setting up vLan Routing.   Any help would be apprciated.

 

I have 2 vLANs setup. 

1. VLAN 100

2. VLAN 10

 

VLAN 10 is on Port 23 with 1 device connected at IP 172.22.0.238

On the switch Port 23 is [U] on VLAN 10   and  [T] on VLAN 100

 

VLAN 100 is on all but 1 switch port.  IP range 192.168.101.x with the Internet gateway 192.168.101.1

All other Switch ports are [U] on VLAN 100

 

ROUTING

IP Configuration: Enabled

 

I can not Ping 172.22.0.238 from a PC on there 192.168.101.x range so the routing is not working.    To test the cabling I put port 23 back to vlan 100, changed the PC IP to 172.22.0.x and received a reply from 172.22.0.238

 

This is the first time trying to setup routing so I've watched a number of Youtube Videos, read the manuals and now even more confused...  ;-(

 

Any pointers or comments on what I'm doing wrong would be appreciated. (screenshots attached)

    ScubaSteve007,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

    The GS728TP is a Layer 2 Smart Managed Pro Switch and NOT a Fully Managed Switch.  With regard to Inter-VLAN Routing, let me share the articles below as these serve as your reference guides:

    • Thank you for the information.    This helped clarify.    I managed to get it partially working and think I know the reason why it was not working in the first place. However would be great for some confirmation.

       

      To get inter vlan working I gave up on the 192.168.101.x range and created a third 192.168.102.x range.   I set this up as before and it all worked like a dream.    The only thing I did not have was internet access to the 192.168.102.x range.

       

      My conclusion is that as the router gateway to the internet is at 192.168.101.1  I think this IP is causing of original inter vlan problem with the vlan at 192.168.101.1 as well as the router.   I suspect this is also stopping internet access to vlan 192.168.102.x.

       

      2 questions:

      1. If I change the router to IP 192.168.101.254 I believe this would fix the original problem andalso open up internet access to 192.168.102.x

      2. Or I could change the vLAN routing to use 192.168.101.254 instead

       

      Before I start playing would be grateful for confirmation.
