Configure VLAN trunking on Dell Powerconnect 6224 Switch
We have 2 sites (Site A & Site B).
At each site there is an ISCSI VLAN which is meant for SAN replication between the 2 sites (Equallogic SAN Groups).
The ISCSI VLANs are configured correctly at each site.
Site A - VLAN ID 11
Site B - VLAN ID 12
The ISCSI VLANs are managed by Powerconnect 6224's.
We now have a dedicated point to point link in place between the 2 sites. I have connected the uplink cable for the link between the 2 sites into 1 port on each switch.
I have been advised by the link provider that I need configure the port where the uplink cable is connected on the 6224 at site A (VLAN ID 11) to Trunk VLAN ID 12.
Does this sound correct and How do you do this in the web GUI?

Hello, this part is already in place. VLAN's already present and the appropriate ports are tagged.
However I still don't seem to be able to communicate with the local gateway from either the iSCSI (VLAN) switch or any of the devices attached to it on the same VLAN.
