VLAN Help

Hi

I've got a Netgear GS348T switch and a HP 2910-al that I need to pass a couple of VLAN's across. I have set the VLAN's on my Draytek router and on both switches which works fine. However when I try to link the 2 switches I'm not receiving an IP address. I've got the Draytek plugged into the Netgear which has a port 28 Tagged for the 2 VLAN's and ports 43 and 44 untagged. On the HP I've got port 5 Tagged and ports 6 & 7 untagged. Can anyone shed any light on what I need to configure to get the 2 switched working together?

Cheers

Link between the switches, summarise, how are they tagged? Should both be trunk ports?

I've got port 48 on the Netgear plugged into port 20 on the HP. Do I just need to make both those ports tagged with the VLAN's?

Yes - assuming similar to my netgear swtich, the port linking the two switches needs to be a tagged member of both VLANs with a similar configuration on the HP switch.

Have the switch to switch link configured as a trunk, then configure the host ports with whatever VLAN you want that host on.
