I have a WS-6-Mini and port 1 connect to my central router. On this central router I have set one vlan (ID=10, service-tag='on') that resides on the physical interface that connects to this port1 of the Mini.
On port 5 of the mini I have a backhaul radio making a link to remote network consisting out of several other routers. Some routers away from this Mini the vlan10 has an end point on an interface of a internet router.
In between the Mini and the internet router the vlan is transparently (by having physical interfaces of passing routers bridged) passed through.
Before the Mini I always had a small router that also bridged the incoming port 1 (from central) with the outgoing port 5 (backhaul to remote).
But I am not completely sure how to set the mini up so the vlan with ID=10 also transfers transparent from port 1 towards port 5
Port 1 up to port 5 of the mini are all in one IP domain/network and all routers (also remote ones behind the link connected to port 5) are reachable by plain routing from the central.
But instead of reaching the remote internet gateway by routing (so I have to set the routes in all passing routers) I want to one route in my central pointing to the endpoint IP of the vlan10. (This vlan act as a failover link towards remote internet gateway if local internet gateway fails.)
I attached a screendump on how I presume it should be set... can any please acknowledge or correct?

Re: Basic vlan question fm dummy
Why do you have 2 screen grabs that are the same?
It looks like it should work, not sure why you selected Port Trunking on port 1 though?
A network diagram even if crude in MS Paint sometimes help visualize what you want to do.

Re: Basic vlan question fm dummy
the 2 screen grabs were not intended. Don't know what happened.
why Port Trunking on port 1 selected? Because that is the 'incoming' port attached to my main router? From my main router more vlans might come in a later stage to be distributed over several of the mini's ports.
So on port 1 vlan10, 20, 30 and 40 might come in and than 10 goes to 5, 20 to 2, 30 to 3 and 40 to 4? That is my idea? Or am I now mistaken? So port 1 is in that case a "trunk"?
vlan's can be very confusing at times.....

Re: Basic vlan question fm dummy
Yea that is not how you want to do it
You create a new VLAN for each out port
Look how I do it
