SG 300-10 . Mapping fiber to ethernet ports (vlans?)...

[gsgallo]

Hi,

the incoming fiber on ports 9 and 10 are on different subnets.  I need to map the subnet on port 9 to ethernet ports 1-9 and port 10 is on its own.  I have the device IPv4 address set to a static address on the same subnet as port 9.  I don't know if there's an easier approach, but I attempted to map the ports using vlans (please see the attached screenshots).  We don't yet have the fiber link established for port 10, so I haven't had a chance to test, but I wanted to confirm that my configuration is sound.  I used the default vlan for ports 1-9, because I need to manage through that subnet.  I added vlan 10 for port 10, but I don't know if I have it configured correctly... Please advise.  Thanks..!

Hi Greg,

Fiber ethernet  is most likely running at 1000Mbits/sec and any   Copper Ethernet interfaces on the switch runs at 1000Mbit/sec.  personally the only differentiation I make between the copper or fiber  are the distances they can  run.

I love your screen captures it shows me that ports 1-9 are untagged in VLAN 1 (default VLAN)  and port 10 is untagged in VLAN 10. 

It tells me that both fiber runs are running untagged Ethernet frames on both fiber runs.

You have associated a IP address onto VLAN1 so you can manage the switch. 

but the next question is;

What are you trying to achieve ?

Thanks, David.  The fiber on Port 9 is on one subnet and the fiber on Port 10 is on another.  I simply want ports 1-9 to work on the subnet (incoming) on 9, and I want port 10 (ethernet) to work on the subnet brought in by port 10 fiber.  I'm really just looking for a solution to map the ethernet ports to the desired/designated fiber ports, and I don't know if the VLAN vehicle is the best way to accomplish that...  Thanks so much.
