We are planning to purchase new switches for our network. We have three buildings in the same area that are all connected by fiber. Our main building is very large and needs to be connected by fiber from north to south.
I'm building a lab network with some old Cisco gear so that I can properly test the deployment of a Read-Only Domain Controller in a vacuum (no connectivity to our production network).
I'm changing my network from everything on one subnet to using VLans. My problem is that we already a lot of devices on this network already.
I have a charity who have two adjacent medium sized modern detached houses (in the UK): the buildings stand next to each other and are less than 5 metres apart. They have DSL connected to a single computer in one of the buildings. They want to add a network with wireless, and want it to work across both buildings. Being a charity they need to keep costs down.
I have 6 Juniper switches (EX - 2200) connected to each other as shown in the network topology.
I have two PC's that I am using
PC1 - (used for configuring the 6 switches via minicom)
PC2 - to monitor the traffic between the switches via the Ports that are marked with arrows in the diagram.
STEP 1:
I create a new vlan On Switch 3 (SW3) that includes Port 12 and Port 22.
Here's a rough scheme of my network: - http://i.stack.imgur.com/zrlJJ.png
The network is divided into VLANs. The linksys device is connected to a VLAN20 access port.
In order to migrate to a new rack inside the datacenter I have to replicate the VLAN setup between a Cisco Switch and a Dell PowerConnect Swithch.
On the Dell Switch I have 2 VLANs :
vlan 10 : WAN
vlan 20 : MGMT
On the Cisco Switch i have created the same VLANs and set up different port range
vlan10 : Ports 1-12
vlan20 : Ports 13-24
Like this example:
interface gigabitethernet2
First of all I'm relatively new to VLANs. I have a ZyXEL GS-1524 switch and two networks that I want to keep separate, but they need to use the same router. The router is on port 22, ports 17 and 18 belong to the first network, and all other ones to the second.
The issue is that my switch requires all ports to be on VLAN 1.
I have the following scenario:
EX2200 Switch whit
ge-0/0/6 set as an access port on VLAN 80
ge-0/0/0 set as a trunk
port connected to a catalyst switch and various vlans allowed to pass includin vlan 80
On the Catalyst Switch.
port #3 set up as a trunk port that receives traffic from the EX switch.
port 42 is set up also as a trunk port that connects to a cisco router.
Port #46 is where t
