I want to setup DSL running into a FIrewall and then have the firewall run into a switch with a VLAN that serves internet to two different LAN's. How do you set that up. What connects to what?

Thanks, AV
 
I know how to do that on a Nortel Baystack 450 switch, what equipment are you using?


Nortel uses the terminology VLAN to indicate what packets a port can receive, and PVID to indicate how packets that port sends are marked.

if the router is on VLAN 1,2, and 99 and PVID 99, then the router can see packets marked 1 and 2 and 99 and only sends packets marked 99

the ports in both VLAN 1 and 99 which have a PVID of 1 cannot see VLAN 2 at all, but can see the router.

the ports in both VLAN 2 and 99 which have a PVID of 2 cannot see VLAN 1 at all, but can see the router.


I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
