Vlans and Internet connection

Vlans and internet connection

So, I'm a little confused.

So i have 3 Vlans created.

Vlan 1 - Port 1 - 16

Vlan 50 Port 17 - 32

Vlan 100 Port 33 - 48

They each have their own dhcp server etc.

Which port should i connect my comcast cable to.  Should I have configured 1 port not to be apart of any vlan and connect it there.  Please advise.  Not sure where to go from here

See configuration below.

Thanks

Hello,

 

what Comcast device do you have ? Which switch do you have (which model, e.g. 2960) ?

Cisco 3750G and for Comcast it's the 

Model:DPC3941T
Vendor:Cisco
 

Hello,

 

you have a DOCSIS modem which I don't think you can configure to do address translation for more than the default network (10.x.x.x).

Your 3750G cannot do address translation, so it doesn't matter which port you connect the modem to. Only ports in the default VLAN 1 will be able to access the Internet (as these are getting IP addresses in the 10.x.x.x range)...

ok

So my computes that are connect to vlan 50 and vlan 100 will not be able to go online

Hello

Only high switching platforms supports NAT ( 6500+) so to provide NAT for you local subnet you'll need to put a router in between your Comcast and the 3750.

Instead of a router can I use a ASA 5510 firewall

I just don't understand why my computers in vlan 50 and vlan 100 will not be able to go online.

For any edge device to access the internet the private address will need to be translated to a public 'routable' address. This is accomplished via NAT (Network Address Translation). You will need a device that is capable of NAT and routing. Think back to CCENT and CCNA studies, all traffic that traverses one subnet to another (Layer 3) needs to be routed. If you are also wanting to have multiple devices accessing the internet (sharing one public IP) you must NAT this traffic (overload).
