Model: SG2008P  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

NB! I wanted to pick model: TL-SG2016P but it was not available. But I guess it´s the same as TL-SG2008P.

 

Hi,

 

I need some help setting up a TL-SG2016P to work with an ISP router with pre-defined VLANs on a trunk port.

 

I am given the following info from the ISP:

 

Please use port 7 in on the router. It´s a trunk port that allows all the predefined VLANs; VLAN1 (30), VLAN2 (31), VLAN3 (32).

 

VLAN1 (30): 192.168.0.1/24

VLAN2 (31): 192.168.0.2/24

VLAN3 (32): 192.168.0.3/24

 

When I connect the switch to the router (port 7) nothing happens so I guess I need to do some configuration on the switch. Hence my question :-)

 

So 1 port on the switch is connected to the router and the remaining port should have either LAN (VLAN1: DHCP: 192.168.0.1/24) for direct connect i.e. printer/desktops and some of the ports would have Access points connected and must have all 3 VLANS for wifi. 1 remaing port must be able to connect (over a distance fiber TxRx) to a new switch (same TL-SG2016P) with the exact same setup.

 

Please provide some input :-)

 

Thank you!

I think the VLAN you wrote in your text must be wrong. But I roughly know what you want to do.
For what you want to achieve, you can try referring to this guide to use Omada Controller to manage your entire network.

  Hi,

 

Had a chat with the ISP today. The issue was a missing firewall rule.

 

Once this was corrected everything was working perfectly.

 

Thanks!

  Hi @Md-Ripon3 ,

 

Thank you for taking time to reply to my question.

 

Could you provide a link for the same set up but from the web gui?

 

Thank you!

 Hi  @Md-Ripon3 ,

 

Please desregard my last post. I have started using the Omada Controller and found it easy to use.

 

I followed the guide as requested but the set up is still not working.

 

I must be missing something?

 

  • I found a similar post on the internet which stated that you needed to enable VLANs (which is not enable by default)

 

Unfortunately this did not help.

 

 

I have set everything up;

 

VLANs:

 

 

 

Am I missing something is the profile settings?

 

 

When adding a profile to a port: Is "all" then transfered to the next switch (another Switch would be connected to a port which should mirror the set up)  ? 

 

 

As I wrote in my initial mail: The ISP support provided me with the following info:

 

Please use port 7 in the routher (which they manage). This port i a TRUNK port which allows all the following VLANs:

 

 

 

 

I would like to use port 1 on the switch to connect to the router and i.e. port 5 for the internal LAN (office)

 

 

There is still something missing as I am not getting any internet when connecting a LAN cable port 5 on the switch?

 

 

Any ideas`?

 

Thanks!
