Hi,
I have a home office. All my office NICs (Macs, Wins, printers) are on 192.168.1.x. All my home NICs are on 192.168.2.1. The former is VLAN1 tag10 and the latter VLAN2 tag20. (I also have a guest wifi access on 192.168.3.1/VLAN3 tag30). My home switch plugs (Netgear GS748T) plugs into my office switch (Netgear GS716T) via a LAG (with two ports). The office switch into the Draytek 2380n, port 1.
The DHCP on my Draytek is:
LAN1 - 192.168.1.1
LAN2 - 192.168.2.1
LAN3 - 192.168.3.1
Inter-LAN routing for LANs1 and 2.
VLAN settings:
VLAN0 - P1
VLAN1 - P1, P2 / SSID1 / LAN1 / VID10
VLAN2 - P1, P2 / SSID2 / LAN2 / VID20
VLAN3 - P1, P3 / SSID3, SSID4 / LAN3 / VID30
All ports on the office switch are untagged with PIDs of 10, unless they have switches attached, in which case they are tagged and have PIDs of 1. Likewise with the home switch but PIDs are 20.
This setup allows me to keep home and office NICs from appearing on each others networks. It also means that any wifi device will end up on the correct subnet depending on it's SSID it logged into.
The problems occurs with the server. I want it to be on both 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1. This is because it hosts network users, shares some files and also is meant ot be sharing a Drobo 5N for offsite (house) backup. I have set up two subnets on the server, both on the main ethernet port 1. They have manual addresses of 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.2.10.
When the server is plugged into a port on the office switch all the office computers seem to see it and act accordingly. Unfortunately the home ones can't. They can still see its webpage but the file sharing seems not to work so well. Also the Drobo 5N that sits on the home network can't be seen by the server.
If I plug the server into the Draytel port 2 (which has both VIDs 10 and 20 checked), the server can be seen from a file sharing point of view (not SMB but this may be something else), it can see and share the Drobo 5N but other services don't work (mail, calendar etc).
I am assuming I have mucked up the login of my VLANs somehow.
Anyone able to understand my garble and help?
Many thanks,
Francis.
