Hello Community!
In our company we have 2 phisically different networks. Network 1 and Network 2
Both uses the default VLAN1 vlan id.
I have access to Network 1. This Network 1 uses VLAN1 in too many networking items, and since it is not well documented, I wouldn't be happy to bother it. And the time window is too narrow to do it even on weekend.
I don't have access to Network 2 right now, and after asking in words what should I expect, they told me they don't know what they have, but because of past incidents, I think that they are using only VLAN1.
Now two buildings were connected with an optical cable (ISP only allows to use 1 pair of cable).
So I need to send the two VLAN1 network on the same cable between two Cisco SG250 switch.
I have 2 additional Cisco SG250 switch for the job.
So is there some way to add a new vlan for Network 2 that just works on Network 1?
And is converted back on both sides?
Is it even possible to solve on layer 2 level?
Thanks in advance!

you can assign the fibre link to VLAN 1 so it spans across the two networks.
have you looked at subnets?
are networks1 and 2 different subnets, because if they are, spanning vlan 1 across the two networks is pointless and you will need a ip boundary between the two,
let us know

If the L2VLAN / IP address overlapping, they can not me moved to New VLAN and New Address Space.
you have only Option left with NAT behind another IP Address spool between site - i can think of now.

Well because I can't buy new routers, and after considering about the problem, we have come to the solution, that it is not possible to send it.
So it stays that I need to change the vlan number on one of the networks.
Thanks for the help!
