CCR and Two Switches

RouterOS General
1

Hello, I have a CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+ and have connected its port 3 to a Dell 3324 switch on its gigabit port 1 (trunking). I have another Dell 3324 and have connected from its gigabit port 1 to port 4 on the CCR (should also be trunking). I have created 10 vlans and want all 10 vlans to be available on both switches thru the CCR. The issue is, It works correctly for the switch connected on port 3 of the CCR, I can plug into any port on the switch and get an IP address from the appropriate vlan dhcp server. The problem is, the switch connected to port 4, it is inconsistent. I can connect cable on port 3 and can get an IP address from the vlan3 dhcp server, then I move cable to ports 4 or 5 and so on and no IP from other Vlan’s dhcp servers. Both switches are configured the same. I am just trying to upgrade from a RB493AH that it all worked on correctly.

I have physical ports 3 and 4 assigned to bridge2 and all vlans are under the bridge2 interface.

Any Ideas???

Bear in mind that on RB493G, ether3 and 4 are on the same switch group, so it may be switching or VLANs were implemented in hardware by using the switch chip features.

CCR1009-7G-1C-1S+ doesn’t have any switch chip, if you imported the RB493G configuration, anything related to switch chip won’t be imported.

I don’t understand your goal, why creating 10VLANs to bridge them all at a single point???

(should also be trunking). I have created 10 vlans and want all 10 vlans to be available on both switches thru the CCR

Then all you need is adding ether3 and ether4 to a bridge. ROS trunks by default.

Add then the VLAN interfaces “hanging” from that bridge, and use vlan interfaces theirselves for IP addresses assignment, DHCP servers interface, etc.
