I need to create a VLAN to allow wide open internet connection via a DSL line all over our building, and keep it seperate from our internal network. Instead of running home runs back to our DSL modem I thougt I would create a VLAN to plug the AP's into. Of course I need the non-firewalled traffic be kept off the internal firewalled network.
Here is what I did but it doesn't seem to be working.
On my core switch I did the following:
vlan 50
name @YourOwnRisk
set this port up so the DSL modem would plug into the core switch
int gig0/2
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 50
created a trunk port that runs to a remote switch
int gig0/48
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
On my remote switch I did the following:
created a trunk that runs to my core switch
int gig0/48
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
set the port that the dsl AP would be plugged into.
int gig0/1
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 50
with all this set up my AP will not get a DHCP address from my DSL modem.
I know this is pretty rookie stuff, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working for me.
Any help would be appreciated.
