How to transports several VLAN on an Ethernet link ? Procurve 1800 series

[Doulcet]

Is it possible to transport VLANs on an ethernet link on a procurve 1800 series 24 G ?
Do I make a trunk ?? but a trunk requires at least two interfaces ...

Please, help me !

There is some naming confusion regarding the word "trunk" since it means something on Cisco and something else on HP.. : ) That is, a Procurve-trunk has nothing to do with VLANs.

As to your question, you can transport several VLANs over one ethernet-link. Just attach the same port as a tagged member of the VLANs you want, and do the same thing on the other side.

Yes, I'm agree with you ...I know the difference between the tunk Cisco and the trunk HP. But, in this switch, on the procurve 1800 series, I can configure it only by the web administration and I'm unable to put several vlans on a tagged port. I can choose only one vlan for one tagged port.

There is a solution??

Hi Doulcet

VLAN Per Port Configuration:

VLAN Aware Enabled

Packet Type: All

PVID: Set the port according to the Vlan Membership


Uplink Port Configuration:
VLAN Aware Enabled

Packet Type: Tagged

PVID: None

Bear in mind sometimes you have to reboot the switch to reactivate the link, once you set it up

Good Luck!

Ok thanks for your help but I haven't the menu
Uplink Port Configuration in the procurve 1800 series ...
and in the vlan port configuration, I can choose only one PVID

I join a picture of the web configuration.

not in the per-port-config, but in the vlan config you assign ports to a vlan.

I'm agree with you Pieter ...but it is not my question ...
Or create an other Vlan which includes other VLAN ??

Example : Vlan 1 port 1,2,3,4
Vlan 2 port 5,6,7,8

Vlan 3 which include Vlan 1 and Vlan 2 : port 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 ???

Excuse me , but it is not very clear for me ..

My question is How to transport several Vlans on a link ethernet ?


Thanks

[Pieter 't Hart]

no you just add a port to multiple vlans

Example :
Vlan 1 port 1,2,3,4
Vlan 2 port 2, 5,6,7,8

so port 2 makes a trunk of vlan1 and 2

[Doulcet]

Ok! Thank you for your your help !!

[Doulcet]

Ok port 2 transport Vlan 1 et 2 but in the vlan port configuration,I can choose only one PVID ...either 1 or 2...

SO ?
