SG-3100 Bridge Interfaces MVNETA0 and MVNETA1
-
I have purchased this SG-3100 in hopes that I could use all 5 interfaces on the back for my needs. I would like to have 2 VLANs (10 and 666). I also have a Ubiquiti AP AC Pro. I'd like it to hang off of mvneta0 (OPT1). It should be a trunked interface so both VLAN 10 and 666 are going to that AP. Then, I'd like LAN 1-4 to be ACCESS ports. I'd like to assign either VLAN 10 or 666 to any of those ports. Do I need to setup a BRIDGE to do this? If so, what is the proper method? Thanks!

I would not bridge.
I would tag the VLANs to another switch if 4 switch ports is not enough.

That seems to be the consensus on the IRC channel, however, it would be nice to have more than just 4 interfaces. I'm still trying to figure out how to trunk an interface on this mvneta1 device. I need to have LAN1-3 on VLAN 10, and LAN 4 am 802.1q trunk interface for VLANs 10 and 666.

@joltman:

IMHO it is not worth all the hassle and performance hits of a software bridge for every VLAN to get just one additional port.
Need more switch ports? Get more switch ports.

First, be sure you are on 2.4.2_1. If not, update. Another post forthcoming with details.

Derelict,
Again, thank you for responding! I've decided to forgo the bridging idea. In my other post, I bring up some questions I have about the way to properly trunk an interface and change it's native VLAN. Thanks!
