Help with VLAN Bridging

Hi,

I was hoping the combined expertise on this forum is able to help me sole a problem I am having.

I have an 850Gx2 running 6.40.

As illustrated in the diagram:

  • Ether 1 and 2 have ip addresses directly attached that are routed (internet access and DMZ)
  • Ether 4 is connected to a downstream switch has a directly attached ip that is routed (switch management)
  • Ether 3 (NAS), and two vlans attached to ether 4 (user devices)

The reason I am setting this up is that the user devices on vlans 10 and 13 should be able see each other and the NAS as if they are on a layer two network, however I would like to apply separate firewall rules to the outbound access from the different user vlans.

I have not yet implemented any filters or firewall rules however see the following behavior.

  • Vlan 10 and 13 are able to talk with the NAs on ether 3 and route to the switch management ip untagged on ether 4 and the DMZ and internet however;
  • Vlan 10 can not communicate with vlan 13 and vice versa
    I have tried using different horizon settings on the bridge ports (all the same, all different and no horizon value) however see the same result each time.

I would appreciate any input or experience that is able to be provided.

Thanks,
Nichol
