VLAN config

When using with a FireBrick for bonding multiple lines we can use VLANS for each of the PPP sessions.

We'll configure the switch as:

  • Port 1 - VLAN 101, for ADSL line 1
  • Port 2 - VLAN 102, for ADSL line 2
  • Port 3 - VLAN 103, for ADSL line 3
  • Port 4 - VLAN 104, for ADSL line 4
  • Port 8 is for the FireBrick

Accessing the switch=

  • Click VLAN
    • Create a new VLAN, enter in 101, then Click Next
      • Drag Port01 to the Untagged area
      • Drag Port08 to the tagged area
      • Click Next, then click Finish

This process repeats for VLAN 102, 103, 104 but you use Port02 for VLAN 102, Port03 for VLAN 103, Port04 for VLAN 104... so:

    • From the front page, Click VLAN
    • Create a new VLAN, enter in 102, then Click Next
      • Drag Port02 to the Untagged area
      • Drag Port08 to the tagged area
      • Click Next, then click Finish
  • Click VLAN
    • Create a new VLAN, enter in 103, then Click Next
      • Drag Port03 to the Untagged area
      • Drag Port08 to the tagged area
      • Click Next, then click Finish
  • Click VLAN
    • Create a new VLAN, enter in 104, then Click Next
      • Drag Port04 to the Untagged area
      • Drag Port08 to the tagged area
      • Click Next, then click Finish
