Hi,

what i'm trying to accomplish is to have a few switches connected via .1q to the gigabit ports of 2011, have the traffic switched and the router act as a gateway for each vlan.

From what i understand from the switch chip features, this is only possible with Atheros 8316 ?

Is there any way, other than doing software vlan + bridging of vlans on the 2011 ?

Please clarify your setup requirements regarding RB2011 switch chip.

Gigabit ports on RB2011 use Atheros8327 (ether1-ether5+sfp1), 8316 and 8327 comparison,

Ok to make myself more clear, here's the scenario:

on 2011:
Port 1 - switch connected via 802.1q vlan trunking (say vlan 10,20,30)
Port 2 - switch connected via 802.1q vlan trunking, same vlans as above
Port 3 - switch connected via 802.1q vlan trunking, same vlans as above
Port 4 - needs to be access on vlan 10
Port 5 - needs to be access on vlan 20

How do i do that, and how do i "extract" the vlans on the 2011's CPU so it can act as router between vlans ?

I have a 2011 too. For your scenario.

Hardware (Atheros8327) forwarding port 1,2,3. Port 1 as master
Software bridge port 4 to port1 sub-interface VLAN 10
Software bridge port 5 to port1 sub-interface VLAN 20

Do not need to change anything within "Switch" menu.

Atheros8327 unable to strip/add VLAN head. Atheros8327 can forward frame only.

The question is, sub-interfaces will be attached to which port in order for traffic coming from port 1,2 and 3 to be accessible on those sub-interfaces ?

Port 1, Master port

Can someone give example commands on how to accomplish this?...or point me to a tutorial. I can't seem to find any single tutorial or document with everything included to setup VLAN's, trunking, and DHCP scopes on the RB2011. Thanks in advance.

I'd like to make a trunk to an Avaya 3524 switch. Right now I have all switching tied to bridge-local for wired and wireless. Ideally, I'd like to have 2 wired VLAN's with their own subnet and DHCP scope, and a 3rd VLAN for wireless with it's own subnet and DHCP scope.

Do I need to create a bridge for each VLAN? Is the default bridge-local untagged? If so, how do I make it tag on VLAN 1?

This may be my frustration, but it seems everything on this board gets referred back to the wiki, which is very ambiguous.

Is there not anybody out there that can pose a clear example of how to do VLAN trunk ports, VLAN access ports and put them together?

Make a new thread about what your trying to do and I can try to help.
