How do I setup a VLAN between two routers?
The simplest way to enable routing between the two VLANs to simply connect an additional port from each VLAN into a Router. The Router doesn’t know that it has two connections to the same switch — nor does it need to. The Router operates like normal when routing packets between two networks.
Can I connect two routers via a switch?
You can only have one router connected to your ISP. Connecting a switch into your modem first and then two routers to the switch will only let one router work since the ISP will only select one of the routers. You can only have one router connected to your ISP.
Can VLANs span across routers?
VLAN’s are Layer 2 constructs, they don’t go across routers.
How do I add a VLAN to my router?
Select Routing> VLAN > VLAN Routing. From the VLAN menu, select the VLAN that you just created. In the IP address field, type the IP address that you want to assign to the VLAN routing interface. In the Subnet Mask field, type the subnet mask that you want to assign to the VLAN routing interface.
How do I enable VLAN on my router?
To enable VLAN routing and configure the ports. Routing –> IP –> Interface Configuration. To enable routing for the ports and configure their IP addresses and subnet masks. To enable routing for the switch and specify the router ID.
How do I switch between routers?
Steps to Set up a Network Switch With a Router Step 3: Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable connected with modem into your router’s WAN port. Step 4: Use another Ethernet cable to connect one of your LAN ports in router to a network switch port. Step 5: Plug the power supplies of three devices.
Do VLANs need to be on separate subnets?
Each VLAN requires its own subnet, but each subnet does not require its own VLAN. VLANs are implemented for isolation, ease of management and security. No, VLANs don’t require different subnets.
How does a VLAN work between two routers?
I have a point to point fiber connection between two routers, each of those two routers have a Catalyst switch with a trunk port. Each switch has a vlan configured. There is a computer in that VLAN that needs to talk to the computer on the other switch. The VLAN are the same numbers but the switches are in different VTP domains.
Is it possible to use two VLANs on a 3500 switch?
Yes, that is possible. You create 2 vlans on the 3500 switch. Lets say you create vlan 100 and 200, then add port lets say 10 to vlan 100 and port 20 to vlan 200. Now you have one PC connected to port 10 and one PC connected to port 20.
How are two routers connected to one switch?
Now you have one PC connected to port 10 and one PC connected to port 20. You also have 2 links (ports 23 and 24) port 23 connectes to router-1 and port 24 connects to router-2. You also add port 23 to vlan 100 and port 24 to vlan 200. Now on each interface on the router connected to each port configure one subnet.
Do you need trunk to connect two VLANs?
2.The port which connects the two switches is not trunk. (hence,no trunking is done). Since you are using one vlan per switch, there is no need for a trunk and the vlan id can and are different (10 and 30). So everything works as expected.
