We've lost our vendor help on configuring firewalls and switches. I've been learning using the 'over the shoulder' learning technique, and was able to get a pretty good handle on things, but I'm stuck now. My objective is to create a VLAN/DMZ for our camera surveillance system - to allow for internet access inside for control.

I created a VLAN 66 on the Firewall/Router (CISCO 2821) with an IP address; but it doesn't seem to be communicating between the Router/FW and the Switch. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but still hoping someone can point out my blunder.

conf t
VLAN 66
Name VLAN0066
IP ADDRESS xx.xx.xx.254
NO SHUT
exit
exit

On the switch (CISCO 2960G), I also created a VLAN 66.
Conf t
VLAN 66
Name VLAN0066
IP ADDRESS xx.xx.xx.253
exit
int gi 0/12
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 66
no shut
exit

Here's the FW/ROUTER config for VLAN 66:

CWA-PLANT-FW#sho int vlan 66

ANY help would be MOST APPRECIATED!

Vlan66 is up, line protocol is down is a layer 2 problem. what kind of cable to you have crossover?
 
Wouldn't this be easier using 802.1q encapsulation. This allowing multiple interfaces on one physical ethernet port using sub interfaces. Each sub interface has it vlan tagged.

Example:
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0
description Voice and Data Encapsulation
no ip address
duplex auto
speed auto
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0.1
description connection to Data Vlan
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
ip address 192.168.1.252 255.255.255.0
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0.66
description Connection to Cisco VoIP
encapsulation dot1Q 66
ip address 192.168.2.252 255.255.255.0
!

Set your switch port to the router as a trunk port.
Then assign your vlan on a per port basis.
