Troubleshooting
Problem One
• I don’t need VLANs at all. How do I turn them off?
Simply leave all ports set to type “Edge” and leave the native VLAN set to 1. This
is the default configuration for the switch.
Problem Two
• I have added two VLANs 2 and 3. I made a number of ports
members of these VLANS. Now I need some of the devices in one
VLAN send messages to some devices in the other VLAN.
If the devices need to communicate at the physical address layer, they must be
members of the same VLAN. If they can communicate in a layer 3 fashion (i.e.
using a protocol such as IP or IPX) you can use a router. The router will treat
each VLAN as a separate interface, which will have its own associated IP address
space.
