Hi Ian, I'm not sure I understand question 1-could you give a bit more detail on your setup?
As far as 2 goes, the switch just needs to be able to communicate with the PF server for SNMP/RADIUS. You don't need to set up VLAN interfaces for each VLAN. So for example if your managed switch is at 192.168.1.1 your PF box will need an interface on that network. So you should be able to ping the switch IP from the PF box and vice versa.

I defined all the Vlans on the switch (1,2,3,4,5,10) and allowed the trunk link access to all of them. My two questions are: 1) When working with virtual interfaces/trunks...on my host linux box (physical Ethernet port) do I need to assign IP address (in the 10.0.10.0/24<http://10.0.10.0/24> network) or do I leave it as DHCP // (same with virtual interfaces/cards created in VM Workstation)? 2) On my Cisco switch, do I need to add an IP address to each Vlan interface in order for traffic to pass from the Cisco switch to the PF Zen VM? If anyone could help, I would really appreciate. Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
