Hello,
I have purchased a Cisco SF 302-08P 8-port 10/100 PoE Managed Switch with the intention of creating VLAN's for my home network. The idea behind this set up is having 1 network for gaming and the other for work.
I am thinking on having 2 separate networks
192.168.2.0/24 Gaming Network
192.168.3.0/24 Work Network
On the gaming network I need to open port 777 and on the work network restrict all ports except 80,443.
My set up would be
Internet - Router (R1) - Cisco Switch - 2 wireless routers(R2,R3) connected to the switch ( one for gaming(R2) and other for work (R3))
My idea is on Router R1 - open all ports
Router R2 - Open port 777,80,443 restrict all other ports
Router R3- restrict all ports except 80,443.
I would like to know if this setup works and can anyone please provide VLAN procedure to accomplish this
Thanks

HI Maakr,
First you want to enable the Switch to Layer3 mode as explained below:
Upgrade the firmware to 1.1.2.0.Use the below link to download the firmware.
Configure the switch with below commands to change form Layer 2 to 3
The set system mode Privileged EXEC mode command puts the device into
switch mode (Layer 2 mode) or router mode (Layer 3 mode).
Syntax
set system mode {router | switch}
Parameters
• router—Specifies that the device functions as a switch-router.
• switch—Specifies that the device functions as a switch.
Default Configuration
The default configuration is switch mode (Layer 2).
Command Mode
Privileged EXEC mode
User Guidelines
After executing the command, the Startup Configuration file is deleted and the
device is rebooted. It is highly recommended to back up the Startup Configuration
file before executing this command.
Example
The following example configures the device to function as a switch-router (Layer
3), with QoS and Policy based VLANs.
switchxxxxxx# set system mode router
After this
Kindly check the Menu--->IP configuration--->IPV4 interface---->you add the SVI interfaces for multi vlans.
