Model: TL-SG1218MPE  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 1.0.0 Build 20211229 Rel.62239

Hi All,

 

I have recently bought 3 x TL-SG1218MPE switches.  We have 3 vlans in the network and vlan id 200 is used as the management. port 6 of the switch is directly connected to the router and all the vlan gateways are created on the router. 802.1q vlan configurations have been done on the switch as well. But still the management IP of the switch is in vlan 1 address range. How can I change the management vlan id for the switch management?

 

Thanks

Lakmal

Try setting the ports between the router and the switch to be tagged, and the PVID to be the management VLAN ID.
Set a separate Interface on the switch to the static IP address of the same network segment as the management VLAN.

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

Hi, I just installed the same switch and have the same problem. Haven't found a workaround yet. I suspect tp-link will have to add this feature.

Chiming in that this is a problem also affecting me. Tried every combination of PVID and VLAN tags in the interface I could think of, including moving everything off of the default VLAN 1, no dice.

 

The only management interface this switch provides is via bare HTTP, so I wanted to use a VLAN to provide some degree of isolation. Hopefully this isn't an intentional oversight for market segmentation. :( I'm considering returning this switch and swapping for another brand.

Try Port 6 untagged in VLAN 200, PVID of 200, and tagged in the other VLANs. If it still does not work, manually set a static IP address in the VLAN 200 subnet range.
