Hello

Can I get some assistance

Site_A connects to Site_B via outdoor wireless.

Wireless link terminates on 4500 on both Sites

How can I extend the VLAN5 on Site_B (Vlan5 is defined on Site_A)

I need to connect 3 server on Site_B with vlan5

====================================

((( Site_A )))

vlan 5

Hi Saquib,

You have configured ports between site A and site B as access port conigure these ports as trunk port and allow the vlan 5 to move over the trunk then you can have vlan 5 in site B also.

Check out the below link how to configure a trunk port in switches

Hope to help

Hello Ganesh

Is it recommended to run TRUNK over bridge connection, anything to watchout with this change.

Thanks

Hi ST,

As such there is no recommendation it is just another configuration to support the need for extending vlan over to another switch just take care of the following things while conifiguring trunk in switches.

By default, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports are in auto mode. If the port on the other end of the link is in desirable mode or on, a port in auto mode automatically becomes a trunk port.

What the default trunk encapsulation is depends on which encapsulation the hardware supports:

•negotiate (on hardware supporting both ISL and 802.1Q)

•isl (on hardware supporting ISL only)

•dot1q (on hardware supporting 802.1Q only)
