Change network structure

Hello everyone!

We got a little question for anyone who can help. Thanks in advance!


PART 1
Our network structure at the moment looks like this:

Image


Every has the same Gateway (eg: 192.168.1.100)

We can choose how every PC do connect to Gateway (Wifi RED or Wifi YELLOW) only if we assign their port to VLAN1 or VLAN2.


PART2
We want to take modify this structure.

In particular, we want to move the router (192.168.1.100), the one near to Netonix1 on the right, to the left, near the Netonix2, the one with VLANs.

I need that every PC remains with the same gateway despite this modify. How do I work this? What is the best VLAN configuration I must use?

That don't make much sense since vlan 1 and vlan 2 should use 2 different IP configuration.

192.168.1.100 is part of vlan 1 or vlan 2 ?

Anyway, simply replicate the vlan of the interface facing the Mikrotik on the other Netonix, on the one on the left..

Thank you for the answer, I'll try to explain better how does it works for us.

Currently we use VLANs only to balance the bandwidth.

We know that we can balance bandwidth using other methods, but this makes easier for us to change the ports in real time.

At the moment the router is not part of any VLAN because it should be contacted BEFORE switching to VLAN1 or VLAN2.

Maybe this picture will help to figure how it works.

Thanks again!
