The basic process is this: * Ether1 is connected to a trunk that has vlan tags 101 and 102 * Ether2 will be an untagged port for vlan 101 * Ether3 will be an untagged port for vlan 102 1. You will add vlan 101 and vlan 102 interfaces with master interface ether1. 2. You will create a bridge called "vlan101bridge" and another called "vlan102bridge" (the name isn't really important, but that's the way I name them). 3. You add the virtual interface vlan101 (or whatever you named the 101 vlan interface in step 1) to the vlan101bridge. Also, add Ether2 to this bridge 4. Repeat step 3 with vlan102 and ether3 This process is ONLY if the scenario is as described above. It is different if you are looking to keep vlan101 tags as it leaves the router on ether2 and ether3. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://www.wispa.org/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * ImageStream, Mikrotik and MORE! * ******************************************************************** _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list [email protected] http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS
