Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
All desktop switches connect back to this 4208vl switch. There is currently no port or switch control over IPs within a subnet for lab computers connect to a certain switch. It is a mixed environment.

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
Unless you enable RIP on the cisco as well, you need not run RIP on the 5308. Running RIP on both will make sure that all routes are available on both boxes. If you make the cisco originate a default route you don't even need to tell the 5308 about that.
As for the multiple vlan deal, this is wat 802.1q, or vlan tagging, is for. As I said before, you can put one port (or aggregated group of ports) in multiple vlans using tags. The switch will, before sending a frame out that port, insert a tag in the frame so the receiving end will know what vlan the frame belongs to. This is what's really called a trunk. (That 'other' trunk is actually called link aggregation, which is the exact opposite of real trunking and a very unfortunate misnomer.)
Think of a vlan trunk as having a really fat cable with, in this case, 256 individual fiber pairs in it. Each of those can be used to carry exactly one vlan. Of course in reality, there's only one fiber pair, the maximum number of vlans is 4096 and with double tagging more than one vlan can be carried per pair, but on a logical level that's essentially what's happening. (And you now see why link aggregation is the /exact/ opposite of trunking: multiple channels over one physical connection vs. one channel over multiple physical connections.)
So as a real-life example, a quick snippet from one of my switches (a 4204vl):
vlan 300
name "BeganeGrond"
no ip address
tagged A19,B23-B24
exit
vlan 500
name "kpnodsl"
untagged B19-B20
tagged A19,B23-B24
exit
vlan 400
name "Z&J"
untagged B5
tagged B23-B24
exit
On port B23 is an Alteon that I use for routing, port B24 connects to a 6108 for servers and A19 is my desktop. Any other ports mentioned have random things on them. Tagged ports don't have any untagged vlans.
Up here I have three VLANs. One, vlan 300, only has tagged ports because really it's only passed through to the other switches (and my desktop, which is a special case) Notice that vlan 500 has exactly the same tagged ports: this vlan is available on the alteon, 6108 and at my desktop as well. Vlan 400 is available on the other switches but not at my desktop. So there be three vlans, each sharing a bunch of ports. (And there are more of those, of course.)
Two of the VLANs also have untagged ports. This is where regular computers and such connect. B5 is in vlan 400 and B19 and B20 are in vlan 500. So if a computer were to be connected to those ports, it'd end up in those vlans. If a computer were to be connected to any of the tagged ports above, not much would happen because I didn't set up any untagged vlans and the computers don't generate frames with tags in them (with, again, the exception of my desktop.)
So you should set the ports that connect your switches to eachother as tagged members of all vlans. Then, set the ports that computers connect to as untagged members of the appropriate vlans.
Treat the cisco as a computer: untagged in its vlan.

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
A couple quick follow-up questions:
- the IP address of the separate cisco VLAN, untagged A1 port, will be from a separate 201 network - the same network as the IP assigned to the cisco router interface. Should I assign 201.1 (as a gateway for that network) to the VLAN201 on the 5308 or to the Cisco router interface? or does it matter?
- then should I set the 5308 default route to the VLAN201 IP address or to the cisco interface IP address?
- and same for the cisco router, should the route go back to the VLAN201 IP or to the 200 IP address of the 5308 switch?
Thanks a million!

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
Doesn't matter, really. It's just a number, so whatever makes the most sense to you. I've seen situations where they standardized on having the lowest number the closest to their border routers, or whatever. You might also just want all the .1s on your 5308, etc.
> then should I set the 5308 default route to the VLAN201 IP address or to the cisco interface IP address?
To whatever the ip on the actual cisco is. You're telling it, 'for any destination you don't know, send the packets to this box over here at this IP address'.
> and same for the cisco router, should the route go back to the VLAN201 IP or to the 200 IP address of the 5308 switch?
You should set a route for your entire network (that is, the full subnet you've been allocated) to the HP's 201 addy. So for example if you were to have been allocated an entire /16 out of 10.0.0.0/8, you might tell it that it can reach all of 10.0.0.0/16 at 10.0.201.1. It'll have a more specific route for that 201 subnet which is directly connected, so you don't have to make an exception for it or anything.

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
However, I now have my test environment running to mirror our production environment and I'm not able to route between subnets. Here is the config of my 5308:
; J4819A Configuration Editor; Created on release #E.11.03
hostname "HP Procurve Switch 5308XL"
max-vlans 256
vlan 1
name "VLAN200"
untagged A2-A15,B1-B24,C1-C4,D1-D24,E1-E24,F1-F24,G1-G4,H1-H24
ip address 134.39.200.1 255.255.255.0
tagged A16
no untagged A1
exit
vlan 10
name "VLAN186"
ip address 134.39.186.1 255.255.255.0
tagged A16
exit
vlan 20
name "VLAN187"
ip address 134.39.187.1 255.255.255.0
tagged A16
exit
vlan 100
name "Cisco-Uplink"
untagged A1
ip address 134.39.201.1 255.255.255.0
exit
qos protocol IP priority 7
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 134.39.201.2
********************
The 5308 port A1 is the Cisco uplink and port A16 is tagged for the multiple VLANs. I have a HP 4000 switch with a 200 IP address connected to 5308 port A7. The switches can ping each other, both in the 200 network, but the 186 and 187 computers connected to the 4000 cannot ping each other or the switch or the VLAN ip. What am I missing?
When the VLAN routing worked before, I believe the 186 and 187 networks showed in the route table. Here is what I show for ip routes:
Destination Gateway VLAN Type Sub-Type Metric Dist.
------------------ --------------- ---- --------- ---------- ---------- -----
127.0.0.0/8 reject static 0 250
127.0.0.1/32 lo0 connected 0 0
134.39.200.0/24 VLAN200 1 connected 0 0
******************
Thanks again

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
What is a good way to test subnet routing?
Because I have have a 186 computer and 187 computer connected to the 4000M switch and I can't ping the 4000M 200 IP address, and I can't ping the 186 gateway address on the 5308 switch.
From the 5308 switch I can ping all the subnet VLAN IPs of course, but not the 4000M switch or any computer.
Do I need more then the one static route out to the Cisco configured on the 5308 to handle subnet routing?

Re: New VLAN & Router Setup on 5308xl
134.39.200.0/24 VLAN200 1 connected
134.39.186.0/24 VLAN186 1 connected
134.39.187.0/24 VLAN187 1 connected
But clients from the various subnets connected to the 4000M cannot see anything else on the network.
