How To Configure Vlans On Cisco Switches. by timigate(m): 10:55am On Nov 02, 2016 |
Hello everyone! Today, lets learn how to set up Vlans cross a cisco switche and configure 802.1q on the router to enable inter-vlan routing. For this exercise, I am going to be using a cisco 2811 router and catalyst 2960 switch. Before we go into the configuration proper, we need to know why we want to create Vlans on our switch. Normally, all ports on a switch all belong to one network and thus form a big collision domain. By creating vlans, we are breaking this collision domain into smaller ones thereby improving network security by isolating sensitive traffics from the rest as well as giving users the ability to access network resources based on logical grouping and not physical locations. To create VLANs, we have to configure the switch first. Below are what we will do on the switch: 1 create vlans on the switch 2 assign switchports to vlans So, lets do it. We are going to create three vlans as follows Vlan 10....name IT Vlan 20....name sales Vlan 30....name Engineering Switch>en Switch#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Switch(config)#vlan 10 Switch(config-vlan)#name IT Switch(config-vlan)#vlan 20 Switch(config-vlan)#name Sales Switch(config-vlan)#vlan 30 Switch(config-vlan)#name Engineering Switch(config-vlan)#exit Switch(config)#int range f0/2 -6 Switch(config-if-range)#sw access vlan 10 Switch(config-if-range)#int range f0/7 -13 Switch(config-if-range)#sw access vlan 20 Switch(config-if-range)#int range f0/14 -21 Switch(config-if-range)#sw access vlan 30 Switch(config-if-range)#exit Switch(config)#exit Switch# %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console Switch#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] Switch# That is all you need to create vlans on the switch. I should add that the port connecting to the router must be configured as a trunk while the other ports connecting end user devices must be configured as access ports .Now to enable inter-vlan routing on the 2811 router, we enter the configurations below. Router>en Router#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#int f0/0 Router(config-if)#no ip add Router(config-if)#no shut Router(config-if)#int f0/0.10 Router(config-subif)#en dot1q 10 Router(config-subif)#ip add 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.224 Router(config-subif)#int f0/0.20 Router(config-subif)# %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/0.20, changed state to up Router(config-subif)#en dot1q 20 Router(config-subif)#ip add 192.168.1.33 255.255.255.224 Router(config-subif)#int f0/0.30 Router(config-subif)# %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/0.30, changed state to up Router(config-subif)#en dot1q 30 Router(config-subif)#ip add 192.168.1.65 255.255.255.224 Router(config-subif)#exit Router(config)#exit Router# %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] Router# Thats all you need to enable inter Vlan routing on a cisco router. It is important that the encapsulation number matches the vlan ID for which that sub-interface is being created. Note: the block on 192.168.1.0 network was broken down into three subnets using a /27 subnet mask giving us the 192.168.1.0,192.168.1.32,192.168.1.64, etc subnets. These subnets can only provide 30 valid IPs and since we have given the first IP address in each subnet to the router's sub-interface, we are left with 29 IPs. If you need more than that number of IPs, please you use a different subnetmask. You can configure DHCP and NAT for each vlan for this to work well. Dont forget to drop a comment or send a mail if you need any help on this and any other topic. Thanks! Source: http://www.timigate.com/2016/11/how-to-configure-vlan-on-cisco-router.html#more 1 Like
