Configuring ports and VLANs on Switch 2 (CLI example)

To configure ports and VLANs on Switch 2, do the following:

1.On Switch 2, enable VLAN tagging on the necessary ports. Port 4 (connection to server 2) remains

untagged, so it is not configured below.

Main# /cfg/port

2

(Select port 2: connection to server 1)

>> Port

2# tag e

 

 

Current

VLAN

tag support: disabled

New VLAN tag

support:

enabled

Port 2 changed to tagged.

 

Main# /cfg/port

18

(Select uplink port 18)

>> Port

18# tag

e

(Enable tagging)

Current

VLAN

tag support:

disabled

New VLAN tag

support:

enabled

Port 18

changed

to tagged.

 

>> Port

18# apply

(Apply the port configurations)

2.Configure the VLANs and their member ports. Since all ports are by default configured for VLAN 1, configure only those ports that belong to other VLANs.

>>/cfg/l2/vlan 3

>>VLAN 3# add 2

Current ports for VLAN 3: empty

Pending new ports for VLAN 3: 2

>> VLAN 3# add 4

Port 4 is an UNTAGGED port and its current PVID is 1. Confirm changing PVID from 1 to 2 [y/n]: y

Current ports for VLAN 3: 2

Pending new ports for VLAN 3:

>> VLAN 3# add 18

Current ports for VLAN 3: 2

Pending new ports for VLAN 3: 18

>>/cfg/l2/vlan 4

>>VLAN 4# add 20

Port 20 is an UNTAGGED port and its current PVID is 1.

Confirm changing PVID from 1 to 2 [y/n]: y

Current ports for VLAN 4: empty

Pending new ports for VLAN 4: 20

>>

apply

(Apply the port configurations)

>>

save

(Save the port configurations)

The external Layer 2 switches should also be configured for VLANs and tagging.
