S370 AsyncOS 7.5.0-833
As per the user manual I have used the etherconfig comand to create to VLANs on the P1 port, which is connected to an 802.1Q trunked switchport.
Each VLAN interface on the S370 has been configured with an IP address belonging to the appropriate subnet, and can be pinged from the switch.
However, if I go to the Security Services/Web Proxy menu I get the following error message "The Web Proxy cannot be configured because there is no interface configured for Web Proxy data traffic (see Network > Interfaces).”
If I configure an IP address on the parent P1 interface the error goes away.
The manual states “A physical port does not need an IP address configured in order to be in a VLAN. The physical port on which a VLAN is created can have an IP that will receive non-VLAN traffic, so you can have both VLAN and non-VLAN traffic on the same interface.”
Q. Why does the physical P1 interface need an IP address configured if the VLAN sub interfaces on the IronPort have valid IP addresses?
