RansNet routers support running multiple VLANs on a single physical interface using the IEEE 802.1Q protocol, the industry standard for implementing Virtual LANs (VLANs) on Ethernet networks.
In other words, a single physical interface can be divided into multiple logical interfaces, with each logical interface tagged and assigned to a specific VLAN. Each of these logical VLAN interfaces is referred to as a sub-interface.
CONFIGURATION STEPS
When configuring bridging interfaces, following conditions apply:
Each VLAN interface is a layer 3 logical interface, assign IP address to VLAN interface.
By default physical interface is in VLAN 1
Connected peer (eg. switch port) must be enabled with 802.1q trunking and the configured VLANs must be allowed by the switch trunk port
GUI Configuration
GUI Configuration
Go to "ORCHESTRATOR --> Configuration", click on "Gateway Device" or "Branch Device" depending on the device you're configuring.
Click on the target device MAC address to enter into device edit menu, "Network --> Interfaces" to see the list of existing interfaces.
To add new ethernet interface (if not using default template), click on "Add Interface", Select "VLAN"
Once you are in the interface editing mode, you can configure respective items, save and apply config once done.
