Procurve 1700-8 Vlans

[msilka]

We are researching using separate VLANs on a 1700-8 switch.

Here is an example of our layout.

PORT 1      PORT 2    PORT 3    PORT 4    PORT 5    PORT 6    PORT 7    PORT 8

VLAN 1/2  VLAN2     VLAN2     VLAN1     VLAN1     VLAN1     VLAN1     VLAN1

We wnat PORT 1 to be able to talk to both VLANs 1 & 2.

I can do that if I change its PVID under the Port Config for VLANS but it will not talk to both.

Is there a setting I am missing here?

Thank you!

One or both of the VLANs will be tagged on the port, so whatever you connect to that port must support 802.1q tagging as well.
