I have a new B One that I am setting up to replace most of my existing network equipment. I’m currently setting up the Ethernet LAN ports. I set up vlans for each port and set each port as an access port. I’m testing two ports with a computer on port 2 and a printer on port 4. With all ports using the default vlan, the computer can access the internet and print through port 4. Things stop working when I set port 4 to its own vlan. I get the following results:
Port 2 computer can print through port 4 when:
- Port 2 uses default vlan
- Port 4 uses default vlan
And
- Port 2 uses vlan2 x.x.2.1
- Port 4 uses default vlan
Port 2 computer cannot print through port 4 when port 4 is set to vlan4:
- Port 2 uses vlan2 x.x.2.1
- Port 4 uses vlan4 x.x.4.1
The failure seems especially odd to me because the port 4 printer receives a new address (x.x.4.10) based on vlan4 but it won’t print. Pings from the router also fail. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Steve
BTW, the B One is using firmware 8.5.3 and firewall rules are disabled.
