Example 2
The example shown in
Figure 4-3
illustrates two VLANs spanning two
Switch 1005s, each with a Fast Ethernet Transceiver Module as port 1.
VLAN 1 is able to talk to VLAN 2 using the backbone port connection
between each VLAN and the router. Ports within the same VLAN which
span the two Switches communicate using a VLT on the Fast Ethernet
backplane.
To set up this configuration:
1
Use the VT100 screens to:
a
Place ports 5-8 of both Switch 1005s in VLAN 1.
b
Place ports 9-12 of both Switch 1005s in VLAN 2.
2
Connect port 1 of the right Switch 1005 to Server 1.
3
Connect port 1 of the left Switch 1005 to Server 2.
4
Use the VT100 screens to:
a
Place port 1 of the right Switch 1005 in VLAN 2.
b
Place port 1 of the left Switch 1005 in VLAN 1.
5
Connect port 28 on the right Switch 1005 to port 28 in the left Switch
1005.
6
Use the VT100 screens to specify that port 28 on the right Switch 1005
is a backbone port and part of a VLT.
7
Connect a VLAN 1 port on the left Switch 1005 to the router.
8
Use the VT100 screens to specify that the VLAN 1 port connected to
the router is a backbone port.
9
Repeat steps 7 and 8 for VLAN 2.
10
Use the VT100 screens to specify that port 28 on the left Switch 1005 is
part of a VLT.
