   ip address 192.168.20.1 255.255.254.0
   tagged Trk1-Trk3
   exit

Should that work?

TIA

To add a vlan 20 named "Storage_VLAN"
and tagging Trk1-Trk3 in vlan 20
should do no harm, this vlan is now ready to (also) communicate vlan 20 with other devices(probably switches) on trk1, trk2 & trk3

However by untagging the ports
A11-A12,A17-A24,B1-B9,B11-B16,B23-B24,C1-C24,D1-D24,E1-E24,F1-F24,G1-G24,H1-H24 in vlan 20
these ports are no longer untagged in "Production_VLAN" (=removed from vlan 10)
&
Origianaly you had probably configured servers/pc/whatever in vlan 10 to have default gateway & netmask: 192.168.1.3  255.255.255.0
-instead they should now match that of their new vlan 20
with dgw:192.168.20.1 and netmask:255.255.254.0

If this is not what you want to obtain, please clarify.

My goal was to add another vlan for storage communications between the NAS and PC and Servers and separate it out from priduction.  I need to keep the production vlan as all the servers and pc are on that vlan and 10.1 is the default gateway for everything..  my thought was to separate it out storage communications form all the other network chatter.

vlan 10 normal production traffic for e-mail, sql, printing, and internet

vlan 20 storage communications only file services access

Hi Jim,

So you want to have multiple vlans configured on one accessport connected to a server or PC.

This can be done on the switch, as long as you per port have  max one untagged vlan + eventualy more vlans tagged.

However not all NIC's in a PC or server can handle Q-tagging (vlans)

So if the NIC's can handle vlans, then on switch config vlan 20 TAGGED on those ports also.
