SG300 Windows DHCP Server and VLANS

90Ninety
Level 1
Level 1

 

I have the following 

Asus RTN16 Router ( WIth Tomato Shibby Firmware) 

  TWO VLANS  (Plus Default )deployed on router  , #3. #4 

  TWO  Gateway Interfaces for each VLAN  ( 10.10.3.1 & 10.10.4.1) 

 

SG300 Smart Switch ( In Layer 3 Mode ) 

VLAN Trunk tagged  Default , VLAN #3, VLAN #4 

Access Ports  for VLAN #3 and VLAN #4 , some default 

VLAN config is shown :

Diagram is below 

network 1.6i.PNG

 

I can get full network access from the server logged in locally ( internet access and can ping the different VLAN gateways ) 

 

However  the Client PCS on the access ports VID3 and VID4 are not getting any IP address from the server .  

 

 

I have enabled DHCP relay , and added the DHCP server address to the switch , as shown below 

dhcp relay config1.PNGdhcp relay 2.PNG

 

IS there something I am missing here?

 I have had more challenges since doing this : 


The DHCP servers both stopped working on the server and from the router 

 

I tried plugging the server and a client  into a dumb ethernet switch and it does not give any IP address 

 

The router stopped giving IP addresses for the workgroup ( 10.10.0.X/25)  on VLAN 1 

 

I have since deleted all additional VLANS and gone back to a workgroup . I really cant understand what I am doing wrong here . Any help appreciated

I think GE23 in wrong mode:

interface gigabitethernet23
ip dhcp snooping trust
ip dhcp relay enable
switchport trunk native vlan 3
switchport forbidden default-vlan

need change to:

 

interface gigabitethernet23
switchport trunk native vlan 3
switchport trunk allowed vlan add 4
description "To_Win2016_Srv"

Ports Ge3 and Ge4 change to:

 

interface gigabitethernet3
 switchport mode access
 switchport access vlan 3 

 

 and

 

interface gigabitethernet4
 switchport mode access
 switchport access vlan 4

 

And see no routes:

D   0.0.0.0/0 [1/2] via 10.10.0.1, 01:52:12, vlan 1
C   10.10.0.0/24 is directly connected, vlan 1

first is send all internet traffic via 10.10.0.1

second is vlan1 subnet

How to switch will transfer packets?

 

P.S.

Why you think switch in L3 mode? I see its L2 router

 

 

Please see my responses in blue

 So I changed the interface#23  from general to 'Trunk' and added VLAN 4 tagged , I will repost the config . Note I was told this was not needed in other forums  (only one VLAN needed) .

I had already done this and have edited the running configuration in the earlier post

Sorry I do not understand the above statements . Could you elaborate further ?  Note: I am not familiar with CLI , if you can , please explain settings in the GUI first .

Because the interface says so ( as below) , I was told a L3 switch was needed to route between subnets/VLANS

I might add that since yesterday , I have been able to get IP from the server when connecting to access port 3 ( VLAN 3 ) Though connecting to access port 4  VLAN (VLAN 4) Does not get me an IP from the server  . However if I manually specify an IP on Access Port 4/ VLAN 4 , I am able to contact the server and have internet .    I also want to add , I am able to contact the upstream router and have internet on both VLAN 3  and VLAN 4 ( VLAN 4 only works with  static IP  )

 

 

Its becouse GE23 was not a member of VLAN4
Now work ?

Hi 


Making G23 a trunk made no difference , I was able get network flow on on either access ports before  , when statically assigning IP's for their relevant subnets . 

 

However it seems  the problem is getting the DHCP relay working . Attached are Wireshark traces for each access ports 

To me it really does not make sense to use a L3 switch and an all in one router.  The L3 switch cannot route the wireless since it is built-in to the router.  A wired router like the Cisco RV340 router and use the ASUS as a wireless AP makes more sense.  Then the L3 switch can route the VLANs.  Hopefully the ASUS router running as a wireless AP can support multiple VLANs for all this to work.

Your post is not making sense, no wireless was mentioned in post 

 

I was told the L3 router switch was needed for VLAN relay but , I understand that the router can do this also

Update ; I have now got the inter VLAN and relay working ( with one caveat *) . The main issue was that I was mixing and matching the VLAN interfaces on the routing hardware . The VLANS are now exist on just the switch - This is important because , the VLAN Relay will only work when on the device where the VLANS are created .

The SG300 switch does not care about additional IP addresses of the Router, so having one IP for the tomato is sufficient . It just needs to know its upstream gateway route . I removed the additional IP interfaces from the tomato , added interfaces to the switch , and removed the Trunk between the router and the Cisco SG300 switch.

So now the Router has one IP address ( 10.10.0.1) and routes packets to the sg300 switch IP ( 10.10.0.5)

Add route 10.10.4.0 (VLAN 4) next hop 10.10.0.5 ( switch )
Add route 10.10.3.0 (VLAN 3) next hop 10.10.0.5 (switch )

tomato routes.png



I understand now , I should let the Switch do the InterVlan routing , which does work automatically . I am now able to IP addresses from the Win2016 server on both VLAN Scopes ( VLAN 3 and VLAN 4 )

 

I also added the Changed the Gateway address of each DHCP pool , to each interface of the SG300 

 

- Just one issue now :

* I am now unable to get internet on the VLANS

OK 

 

So I have the DHCP relay working on one switch but , now not sure where to connect a second switch on this topology . Should I connect the second switch to the router , or should I connect it to the first switch 

 

Please see updated diagram
