there is a link to what the web gui looks like. Maybe I am oblivious but its really confusing. Why are there two untagged vlans? how does that even work
-
@cteneyck From the link you sent, it appears they are using Port 1 as the "Trunk" port... If you look at the diagrams where they are tagging VLAN 101 and VLAN 102, they tag it on port 1, they are using ports 2-4 for vlan 101 (leaving untagged for no vlan aware devices) and ports 4-8 for vlan 102 (untagged for non vlan aware devices)
-
Alright. Ill try that. Does the rest of my configuration look good? Should I change anything?
-
Can i get a bump? I wont have internet after i get off work and I want to make sure everything from above looks good. I dont need a MGMT vlan do i?
-
For HOME? No, a management VLAN is not critical for home use.
-
@scottalanmiller does the IP addressing and general setup look good?

Tagging is just one way to VLAN, it's the common one, but not the only kind.
-
@scottalanmiller good to know
-
Address scheme seems fine.
-
Oh , before I forget.
The AP im assuming gets an IP address. Should I put it in the wireless vlan(10.0.30.0) or should i put it in the seperate subnet(10.0.0.0) just like the switch and router?

The AP itself is untagged by default.
-
@JaredBusch so 10.0.0.3 would work?

Here are some pictures from my adventure last night. I spent several hours trying to get it to work but gave up. I got the vlans to work, as show by the pings. However, I cant get anything to route. I dont know what the route to leave my router needs to be because i dont know what the address on the other side is. do i need to do something to figure that our or is there a tool in the router that can do that? also,do i need to nat, and how should i set that up.
-
@cteneyck, first you need to forget about doing anything with a VLAN. Create your flat network. Get all the wired devices working.
Then add VLAN tags to the switch ports that the router and access point are plugged into. At that point a device on the wifi should pull an ip from the router.
Remember this is why you see @scottalanmiller and myself always recommending a flat network. VLANS add complication. You are doing this to learn about them, so that is good. But this is exactly why VLANS do not belong in a network with very specific reasons.
-
The VLANS are working, i just cant get outside my network now because i have no idea how to get the IP of the device on the other side of my wall jack. How do i set that up
-
@cteneyck by starting over. You jumped in the middle without ever getting the beginning done.
start with a flat network and a working router config then you add complexity.

Thats the problem I dont know how to config the router to route outside and I am asking for help with that now

The wizard on the Ubiquiti will set that up for you.

I have you the answer. Start over. What is the first thing you do with any router?

I was trying to get him to say that.
