Thank you for the suggestions, unfortunately none of them are working. I have tried with the uplink in general trunk mode. I have allowed all vlans and allowed only the specific vlans I am using tagged and untagged, but it is still not passing vlan 12.

yep , verify how dell tags the vlans , it may use a proprietory tagging method for the trunk. On Tue, Mar 6, 2012 at 5:36 PM, Alan Bryant a...@alanbryant.com wrote: Thank you for the suggestions, unfortunately none of them are working. I have tried with the uplink in general trunk mode. I

On the cisco, do a 'show interface trunk'. Be sure that it thinks it's supposed to pass those VLANs. Make sure Vlans allowed on trunk includes the VLAN. Same for Vlans allowed and active in management domain. Then the important one is Vlans in spanning tree forwarding state and not

+1 on show interface trunk, which will probably tell you that only vlan 1 is allowed on your trunk interfaces. I find it easy to forget that a Cisco switch will not pass tagged traffic for a vlan if that vlan isn't created on the switch. Even if you do something like switchport trunk allow

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who chimed in. Like I thought, it turned out to be something very simple and routine. I had not added the vlan to the Cisco switch. I had added it during testing, but I removed all testing config from the switch before I went to vlan's and did not

It is best to configure the Dell using the Web interface on it. You will have to use IE to access it , (need less to say it also needs a management interface '[). I find the CL to be a bit confusing , but that is me Speaking only for the Dell Side config. Comparing your config to some of

I can confirm similar issues between our older Dell Poweredge 1655 and a Cisco 3550. Took me a while to figure this one out, considering the aggro trunks weren't working right either. Switching it to etherchannel solved the trunking issue, but I still had some major issues with VLANs

I've never had problems setting up multiple VLANs on a link between Cisco, HP, Dell switches, IBM mainframes, VMWare servers, 3COM/Nortel, Polycom Phones, Linux servers, etc. If both ends supported 802.1q, it just worked, if the admin read the manual for both pieces of gear and knew how to
