Re: vlan trunking with a powerconnect 5224
On a lark I just executed `ifconfig trunk0 up` and now my trunk is working! And, to make it come up automatically, I just added the single line up to hostname.trunk0... BTW, the trunk interface is not documented in hostname.if(5) Thanks anyways, Kent Kent Watsen wrote: Looking at the output from `ifconfig` (see below), I notice that the trunk0 doesn't show that its UP - why wouldn't it be up? Thanks, Kent

BTW, the trunk interface is not documented in hostname.if(5) well, neither is, say, bge(4). there's no need to specifically mention trunk - you can configure it like any other interface. anything specific to trunk is covered in trunk(4) and ifconfig(8). jmc

Looking at the output from `ifconfig` (see below), I notice that the trunk0 doesn't show that its UP - why wouldn't it be up?

vlan trunking with a powerconnect 5224
I successfully have two vlans running over one physical interface connected to my managed switch (a PowerConnect 5224), but I can't get the same two vlans to work when running over a trunk interface spanning four physical interfaces. Before: (this works, but only uses one physical interface) - # cat hostname.gem0 inet xx.xxx.xxx.x 255.255.255.0 NONE [public ip masked] # cat hostname.hme0 up # cat hostname.vlan2 inet 10.0.2.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 2 vlandev hme0 # cat hostname.vlan3 inet 10.0.3.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 3 vlandev hme0 After: (this doesn't work) # cat hostname.gem0 inet xx.xxx.xxx.x 255.255.255.0 NONE [public ip masked] # cat hostname.hme0 up # cat hostname.hme1 up # cat hostname.hme2 up # cat hostname.hme3 up # cat hostname.trunk0 trunkproto roundrobin trunkport hme0 trunkport hme1 trunkport hme2 trunkport hme3 # cat hostname.vlan2 inet 10.0.2.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 2 vlandev trunk0 # cat hostname.vlan3 inet 10.0.3.1 255.255.255.0 NONE vlan 3 vlandev trunk0 Assuming all looks good above, the changes I made on the switch were: - create a bogus vlan (id ) - make the four ports untagged members of vlan id - remove the four ports as members of vlan id 1 - make the four ports be members of trunk 1 - make trunk 1 tagged member of vlans 2 and vlan 3 But no traffic gets through. For instance, ssh-ing through the firewall and switch to target results in Network is unreachable during which pflog shows a match for pass out on vlan2; `tcpdump -n -i trunk0` shows nothing; `tcpdump -n -i vlan2` shows nothing; heck, even `tcpdump -n -i hme0` shows nothing. Likewise, `tcpdump` on the target shows no traffic. Any ideas? Thanks, Kent
