VLAN tagging with Aruba

    Hi everyone,

    I have a problem with VLAN tagging on my Aruba 3200 controller (Version: 6.3.1.5). Until now I used one WLAN in one VLAN on one Interface with no problems, but now I have to use two WLANs with two VLANs. I configured the second VLAN und WLAN but how do I set two VLANs on one Port? On my switch I can set the Aruba-Uplink port tagged with the two VLANs, that is not a problem. But where can I set the port inside the Aruba Box tagged? When I set the uplink port to "trunk", there is no difference the system repluys on untagged packages.

     

    Vlan 550 -> employes

    Vlan 551 -> Guests

     

    interface gigabitethernet 1/2
            description "GE1/2"
            trusted
            trusted vlan 1-549,552-4094
            switchport mode trunk
            switchport access vlan 551
            switchport trunk native vlan 550
            switchport trunk allowed vlan 550-551
    !

     

    I think it must be very simple, but I don't get it.

     

    Best regards

    So if those are your only two VLANs, the config should look like this:

     

    interface gigabitethernet 1/2
            description "GE1/2"
            trusted
            trusted vlan 550-551
            switchport mode trunk
            switchport trunk allowed vlan 550-551
    !

    In your config, you have a native VLAN set.  This means that that VLAN will be sent UNTAGGED.  So, 

     

    VLAN 550 ---> UNTAGGED

    VLAN 551 ---> TAGGED

     

    Your commands: 

     

            switchport access vlan 551
            switchport trunk native vlan 550

     

    Should be removed.
