In general, ports connecting 2 switches should be tagged, and members of all vlans that you want to be able to be able to see from either switch.
In other words, port 1 in switch 1 should be tagged, and a member of both vlans. Port 1 in switch 2 should be tagged, and a member of both vlans. Communication between ports on switch 1 and switch 2 that are in the same vlan is taking place on layer 2. Communication between devices on vlan 1 and vlan 2, is taking place on layer 3, which means your switches need to be able to route between the vlans. Tagging every port in your switch would not allow routing to take place. Every switch is a little different, but in your case, on switch one, I'd set up a port based vlan, vlan1,and assign an IP address of 192.168.0.192 to the vlan. Then set up a second port based vlan, vlan2, and assign an IP address of 10.10.10.210 to that vlan. My switches will automatically route between the two vlans because that's how I have them configured. Then on your host devices on the 192 subnet, you would make a route that points traffic destined for the 10 subnet to 192.168.0.192. Devices on the 10 subnet would have a route pointing traffic to the 192 subnet to 10.10.10.210. That should get you started. ________________________________ From: Jim Mediger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 08, 2008 1:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP ProCurve VLAN and Routing Trying to setup routing on an HP Procurve 2900. VLAN1 192.168.0.192 (Default_Vlan, Primary) VLAN2 10.10.10.210 Tagged port 1 in both VLANS. Port 1 goes to another switch (HP 2610) with devices in the 10.10.10.0/24 subnet. I can ping 10.10.10.210 but cannot ping anything else in that subnet. Wasn't sure what to do with the default gateway. Point it at a DNS server, which cannot see the 10.X subnet? Am I over-simplifying? If we want everything in 192.x subnet to see everything in the 10.x subnet do I need to tag all ports in both vlans? If so how do I setup the other switches (4-2900's and 3-2610's 1-4000 all HP ProCurves)? Any help is greatly appreciated.
