Hello everybody. i am trying to make vlans between rb751 and down is the diagram.
i have a dhcp gateway server. i want all the traffic between CCR and RB751 to pass in a vlan ID 50. RB751 as accespoints. the users connected to the access points will get IPs from the DHCP server Gateway directly.
my problem is how to make the vlan between the ccr and the access points so that all the traffic will pass in this vlan. also the DHCP Server Gateway must not be in the vlan.
i will be very thankful for any help.
attached is the image ( sorry for my bad drawing)
Is the traffic coming out of the switch tagged ? If so create vlan interface on the 751 interfacr connecting to the switch with vlan id 50 and then add it to the bridge with the wlan
hello rjickity. No the traffic is not tagged. i want the vlan to isolate the traffic all the path when it enters the CCR until it goes out of the wireless.
hello CelticComms
i dont want it to be tagged at all. or if it is obliged to be tagged then let it be tagged when it enters the CCR and untagged when it leaves the wireless.
OK - well maybe the mention of VLANs is causing confusion because that that is often associated with the likes of 802.1q tagging.
As far as the DHCP server not being in the same layer 2 domain as the APs - use DHCP Relay on the CCR to relay the DHCP requests/responses from the interface connected to the 5 port switch to the DHCP server.
If the traffic between the APs <> switch and switch <> CCR are all untagged then the APs should be able to get DHCP service just through the use of DHCP relay on the relevant CCR interface.
If there is something else that you want to achieve try describing without using the term “VLAN” - that might make the goals clearer.
