Trunkport LAN to LAN Bridge
Posted: Wed May 09, 2018 10:50 am
Hi,
I'm struggling to get VLANs running over LAN to LAN Bridge. I have a VPN server at Site A and VPN Bridge in Site B. Both running on Linux. Using a normal access port in VLAN X on the local bridges works fine. Hosts in Site B receive IP from our DHCP in Site A. Now I want to have at least two VLANs in Site B. One for host and one for Phone. As soon as I configure the switch ports that are connected to the local bridges to be trunk ports allowing the two VLANs the hosts in Site B no longer receive an IP. :( Do I need to setup 802.1q on both the VPN Server and the VPN Bridge in the Linux OS? I mean create an interface for each VLAN that I need and create a local bridge for each VLAN? The docs are not quite clear here.
Please help.
