Hi all,

Have a T1 and PRI at customers location.
The T1 internet is combined with a point to point.

Location 1 gets internet and pushes internet traffic to location 2.

PROBLEM i am having: In order for me to get on the internet, i have to have a device to setup a vlan 499 for all internet traffic.

What i have is a basic router and a managed switch that is capable of assigning vlan tags. But if i connect the T1 to the switch, and assign vlan tag 499 to it, then take a untagged port and go from switch to wan port, i cannot get on the internet.

Is there a way that i can assign a vlan of 499 to all ineternet traffic with the equipment i have? The data from location 1 to location 2 is untagged, so i have no issues sending data between the sites.

Thanks
 
what is the 'basic'router? can it do policy based routing?
 
have to upgrade your gear. also, does the T1 respect your vlan tagging?
 
Sounds like a S2S VPN tunnel.

Once you have VLANs on your LAN, by default all boxes connected to the VLAN switch not assigned to any VLAN are in VLAN 1, so they are in fact being tagged with VLAN 1 info...

I don't even wanna post this after Burt, because he knows more than I do...

dot1q won't tag the native vlan (default vlan1)
