We have a cisco 2801 router and CExpress500 switch. The router is connected to switch over the port role "switch" and native vlan no is 1. The router is configured as this:

interface FastEthernet0/0

no ip address

duplex auto

speed auto

!

interface FastEthernet0/0.1

encapsulation dot1Q 1 native

ip address 192.168.110.4 255.255.255.0

no snmp trap link-status

!

interface FastEthernet0/0.184

description vlan184

encapsulation dot1Q 184

ip address 192.168.184.1 255.255.255.0

no snmp trap link-status

Users can reach the native vlan but they cant reach other vlan. Any comment?

The port on the CE500 should be set as a router, otherwise DHCP from/through the router will not work. Setting the port as "trunking" is not possible on a CE500 switch; you must choose predefined smartport types.

Set up your router port as a Dot1Q interface with sub-interfaces and make sure the native VLAN matches on both devices.
