Hi,

I'm new to VLAN setup. Can anyone expert help me ?

I have 2 x 2950-24 switch setup in my office, they're all under single
'VLAN 1'. We're using a cisco 1720 access router. I got a request from
my boss, I need to setup a new vlan for a new dept. whcih needs to be
isolated from existing vlan, but they need to share the internet
access. Below is our LAN setting :

Internet -- Cisco 1720 - 2 x Cisco 2950-24


Company A LAN ip - 10.1.1.0./24
New dept. LAN ip - 10.2.1.0/24

For my understanding, 'Trunking' should able to do that. Could anyone
teach me how to configure my switch for that ?

Many thanks

There will be plenty of examples on the Cisco site for the specifics but
here's a basic rundown.

You need to daisy-chain the switch trunk ports since you don't have 2
FE's on the 1700.

So, configure "switch1" with 2 dot1q trunk ports since this will
interconnect the other switch and router.

Configure "switch2" with 1 trunking port

On the router you need to configure 2 sub-interfaces:

int fastethernet 0.1
encapsulation dot1q 1
ip address whatever

int fastethernet 0.2
encapsulation dot1q 2
ip address whatever

Hey presto there's your trunking. If you don't want the 2 vlan's to talk
to each other, that's easy. Just don't configure any routing between the
two subnets.

it scares me that your boss is asking you to do this - dont you have a
"network guy" in your office?

this sounds like a small office scenario so i doubt they do...even if they
had a 'computer guy' around, he/she probably wouldn't be a full-fledged
cisco engineer.
he/she would probably be more of a desktop support type role.
this is the norm, btw, not the acception for a small office.
