VLANs on 4200G swicthes

[RADDAD2006]

I have 2 - 24 port 4200G swicthes. I have configured ports 1-12 on both switches as VLAN 2 and ports 13-22 as VLAN 3. My uplink port to a 4924 swicth is fiber connected port 27 and ports 28 on each switch are connected together with default VLAN 1.

My question is: Do I need to have a seperate IP address for each VLAN Interface? Meaning switch 1 -VLAN2 has a different IP then swicth 2 - VALN 2? I prefer to have 1 address per VLAN. However, I don't know how to configure the switches so same IP Interface is both switches, same network.

I am trying to create redundancy with 2 two swicthes with two different networks across both swicthes.

Any assistance would be great!! Thanks !!

OK, A short version ... Do I need to cluster 2 - 4200G swicthes in order to have 1 management address for both switches?

You should have both extra VLANs (2 and 3) defined on your 4924.
You should have interfaces for ALL VLANs defined on your 4924.

You should give each 4200 a management IP address in the appropriate VLAN or cluster them if you only want to use one address.

Your aggregation ports (uplinks) should be defined as trunk ports and tagged /untagged to all the VLANS.
