He says: It is not brand new but is working. Here is [http://vpit.net/es380-guide.pdf a guide] that I was able to find to give anyone interested a more in depth view of it. VLAN Configuration Proposal: {{{ With our new setup, I think it would be best to setup a few different VLANs for different uses. For anyone who is unfamiliar with the term, a VLAN is a virtual lan. It allows you to have completely separate networks on the same switch. This will allow us to setup a private network that the public and peer1 would have no access to. This could be handy for database systems, NAS, backup servers, etc which you'd want to keep off the public network. Proposed Configuration: VLAN 1. Management VLAN - not used for normal traffic VLAN 10. Public VLAN - public/Peer1's network VLAN 20. Private VLAN - private subnet for inter-server traffic For a starting point i think having ports 1-12 in VLAN 10 and ports 13-24 in VLAN 20 would be best. The VLAN membership of a port can be changed easily so these would not be set in stone. The switch allows for many more VLANs than we'll ever need so if anyone has a suggestion or need for another VLAN it would be trivial to setup. Any questions/comments, let me know. -Shaun}}} ES380 AC Power Specs: |
