Port based VLAN in TL-SG108E
Hello Community,
I have a LAN setup with CCTV cameras and Dahua NVR, which unfortunately doesn't support 802.1Q VLAN tagging. The goal is to isolate CCTV VLAN from main VLAN at the same time making NVR accessible in both, because it has to be reachable from WAN and also be able to discover the cameras in other VLAN. Hence, the solution might be to apply port-based VLAN. My idea is to have the same subnet, say 192.168.0.0/24 and:
| Port | VLAN | Purpose |
| 1 | 1 | Main LAN |
| 2 | 1,2 | NVR |
| 3-8 | 2 | Cameras |
A very simple trick to forbidden cameras accessing main LAN/Internet. But I realized that in contrast from similar easy-smart switch Netgear GS108E, in TP-Link it is not possible to assign a port (Port 2 in my case) to several port-based VLANs.
Do you know if it is planned in future FWs or what could be a solution in case of my scenario?
Thanks in advance for any valuable tips!
