[f-nsp] Tagged Ports

[Eric Chen]

All we have two scenarios and would appreciate some thought

 

1st Scenario:

 

Uplink 1 <à Switch #1 <- 4 Ports Trunked TAGGED à Switch #2 <-> Uplink 2

 

On both switches there are there are 2 vlans, vlan 2 and vlan 3. VLAN 2
carries ports that should have access to the uplink, VLAN 3 is a local
private network.

 

*** How do we get VLAN 2 on switch 1 to be able to talk to VLAN 2 on switch
2 and same for VLAN 3? I assume we tag the 4 trunked ports into each VLAN?
Can someone provide the commands / a simple how-to?

*** How do we get VLAN 2 on switch 1 to be able to talk to BOTH VLAN 2 and
VLAN 3 on switch 2 and vice versa? – directions welcome ( I guess the simple
alternative is not to have any vlans and put everyone together but that’s
not the ideal solution for us)

 

2nd Scenario:

 

Uplink 1 + Uplink 2 à Switch #1 <- 4 Ports Trunked TAGGED à Switch #2  

 

On switch #1 there are 2 VLANs, 2 and 3. On switch #2, there’s only VLAN 3. 

 

*** How do we get VLAN 3 on switch 2 to talk to VLAN 3 – would a simple
cross connect do the job? (Assume so). Would we still need to set default
route to the next hop gateway on switch #1 via uplinks?

 

Thank you,

Eric
