I am attempting to set up a vlan using 2 SLM2024's and a Cisco asa 5505. I have performed this operation more times than I can count, though never with the 2024, and thought I could do it in my sleep. I am now baffled. The firewall and VLAN config are fine on the ASA. When I connect switch one to the asa it can see the traffic and handle it correctly.
Here's my configuration:
Switch 1 (SLM2024)
Port 1 Acceptable Frames all pvid 1
port 2 Acceptable frames all pvid 100
port 3 Acceptable frames all pvid 1
Switch 1 sits in a seperate building and both port 2 and port 3 are connected to ports on the ASA 5505. Port 1 acts as a trunk port and has VLAN 100 added as a tagged VLAN through the join VLAN interface while also having default VLAN 1U enabled. Port 2 has VLAN 100 as its only VLAN through the join vlan interface and is tagged (100T) so as to interface with the ASA. Port 3 has default VLAN 1 as its only VLAN through the join vlan interface and is untagged(1U).
Switch 2 (SLM 2024)
Port 12 Acceptable Frames ALL pvid 1
Port 6 Acceptable frames ALL pvid 100
Port 1 Acceptable frames ALL pvid 1
Switch 2 sits in my office. Ports 6 and 1 are connected to NICs. Port 12 acts as the trunk port and has vlan 100 added as tagged VLAN (100T) through the join VLAN interface while also having default VLAN 1 enabled as untagged (1U). Port 6 has VLAN 100 as its only VLAN through the join vlan interface and is tagged (100T).
I can add a port to vlan 100 on switch one and interface with the asa on that vlan. The traffic will not pass between the switches. I have tried every type of configuration I can think of and have even walked the network to be sure there wasn't a "dumb" switch in the traffic somewhere and am now at a loss. Do these two "smart switches" just not talk to each other on non-default vlans? Does the "self configuring trunk" not configure?
