Is this possible: accessing 2 vlans from a port set to vlan 1?

[simonstruyve]

Hi,

We're using a Catalyst 2924,

and recently implemented VLAN's.

All ports of the switch have a static vlan 1

and port 24 has multivlan 1+2

How come that 2 of my static ports, can access both vlans??????

From the DHCP server, i get an address of VLAN2.

But setting manually an ip address, i can access VLAN1.

This problem is port based; when i swap machines, the problem remains on the same port.

How can I resolve this???

Kind Regards,

Simon.

Ensure the host on port 24 does not forward.

Ensure that you do not have a device acting as a router on port 24, which is on both VLANs. Better disconnect the host on port 24 and test if the 2 VLANs can now communicate. If not that is the problem.

It might seem silly but sometimes the TCP/IP stack of hosts, instead of dropping packets, it forwards them if it knows a valid route.

Fabio,

Maybe i did not made myself very clear about port 24.

On port 24, there is another switch attached. below, you find a figure of our configuration.

The gloal is to connect the top switch to the bottom switch,

passing through a couple of existing switches.

This existing infrastructure is VLAN1, the "pass though" network is VLAN 2

There is a router on our network, but that's connected to the switch on 193.168.0.105, and that router is only for internet purposes.

Switch 193.121.106.33 (VLAN 2)

193.168.0.105

port 24 (VLAN 2)

Cisco 2900XL Fiber (VLAN 1 & 2)

193.168.0.106

Cisco 2900 port 22 (VLAN1 & 2)

!!! PROBLEM PORTS ARE HERE !!!

port 22 (VLAN1 & 2)

| (Fiber)

193.168.0.112

port 11 (VLAN

port 1 (VLAN 1 local PC)

Cisco 2950 port 12 (VLAN 2 ==> goes to a 3com switch)

Everything works fin, except for the problemports at 193.168.0.106.

The problem seems to expand... yet 6 ports have switched to VLAN 2...

And now the question : Is this setup ok, or should I implement the VLAN's in another way?

Thanks,

Simon.
