Vlan and Trunk

Follow these steps to enable routing (off by default)

Question Modified, Please check again.

The PIX firewall does not support VLAN (ISL/.1Q) trunking, so you have to enable routing on the 3550.

1. Pick one unused port, take it out of a VLAN and assign it an IP address, and Plug in the PIX to that port, assign the PIX an address in the same range.
  interface fast 0/8
   no switchport
   ip address <address> <mask>

2. setup default gateway:
    ip default-gateway <ip-address of PIX>
3. I assume you have setup each VLAN with an IP address:
   interface VLAN 6
     ip address 10.10.2.1
4. Enable IP routing
   ip routing

As your instruction, I have some question

"take it out of a VLAN", does that mean exclude fa0/8 from VLAN 6 ? what ip address ahould I have to assign to this port and Pix port ? Can I use the same range of ip address as VLAN ?
--------------------------------------------------------

What I have done as below, but got error (between --> <--),

1. For PIX:
   config t > int ethernet5 >
   ip address intf5 10.10.2.3 255.255.255.240
-->can not remove route entry because it does not exist<--

2. For Switch : The int fa0/8 does not exclude from Vlan ( Is the correct), It is still a member og VLAN 6.
   config t > int fa0/8
   noswitchport
   ip address 10.10.2.4 255.255.255.240
-->10.10.2.0 overlaps with Vlan6<------

I guess error for PIX is fine, how about error for Switch ? Because of Int fa0/8 still a member of VLAN6 ?

Thanks

Make the ports between the PIX and the switch a different network than you have anywhere else:

PIX:
 ip address intf5 192.168.11.1 255.255.255.252

SWITCH:
 int fast 0/8
  ip address 192.168.11.2 255.255.255.252
 

On your PIX, you will have to add static routes:

route ethernet5 10.10.2.0 255.255.255.240 192.168.11.2
route ethernet5 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.11.2
route ethernet5 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.11.2
route ethernet5 192.168.5.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.11.2
route ethernet5 192.168.6.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.11.2

lrmoore,

I could ping 192.168.11.1 and 192.168.11.2 from Router and Switch now. Error "Type help or '?' for a list of available commands", after enter static route, I have check syntax, do not see anything wrong, any idea ? see the information from PIX bellow,

Please advise, if I have to add more point for my question.

These are connected to interface 5 and the route is to 192.168.11.2. You have them all pointing to the inside now where they should point to Ethernet5 with next hop 192.168.11.2.

lrmoore,

I made a mistake for the question, the correct question as bellow, I have increased the point to 350 for you, appreciate your time.


How to configure Trunk for VLAN, in order for VLAN talk to each other on Cisco Catalyst Multilayer 3550-48
switch,
The following is the vlan diagram,

Port       VLAN                    VLAN IP Address
------     -------------           -----------------
39-48      VLAN 1 -Default         NA
1-3        VLAN 2 - 172.16.2.0/28  172.16.2.1
NC*        VLAN 3 - 192.168.1.0/21 NC*
4-6        VLAN 5 - 10.10.1.0/28   10.10.1.1
7-9,25-32  VLAN 6 - 10.10.2.0/28   10.10.2.1
33-38      VLAN 7 - 10.10.3.0/28   10.10.3.1
10-12      VLAN 10- 192.168.2.0/24 192.168.2.1
13-15      VLAN 11- 192.168.3.0/24 192.168.3.1
16-18      VLAN 12- 192.168.4.0/24 192.168.4.1
19-21      VLAN 13- 192.168.5.0/24 192.168.5.1
22-24      VLAN 14- 192.168.6.0/24 192.168.6.1

This switch is uplink to Cisco Firewall 525, that have 6 port ( 2 equiped + 4 added), Firewall uplink
to internet router.

---------------------------------------
Vlan 2,5,7,10 connect to firewall as DMZ Zone, 4 port used.
Firewall uplink to Internet Router, 1 port used.
Now, There is only 1 port left in Firewall.
---------------------------------------

How to configure Vlan 6,11,12,13,14 to communicate each other and not communicate with vlan 2,5,6,7, because of Vlan 2,5,6,7 are located in DMZ Zone? I try to get solution from http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/c3550/1218ea1/3550scg/swiprout.htm#xtocid2 as you suggested,

so far I guess That I need to use port-channel, but it confuse me, PLease kindly instruct me step by step.

Check out this reference. Look at creating vlan maps, access-lists, and apply the vlan maps to the appropriate vlans. What you want to do is setup access-lists that deny traffic from ip addresses in 6,11,12,13,14 to ip addresses in the other vlans, and vice-versa.

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/c3550/1218ea1/3550scg/swacl.htm#xtocid4

I'll get more specific in my next post..

lrmoore,

For Cat2900xl, different Vlan has to connect to another Layer3 device, in order to route traffic between Valn. without Layer3 device (router/bridge) exist, No route traffic between Vlan.

For Cat3550, It confuse me, ip routing disabled,routing protocol/Rip disabled, Build 10 Vlans as described above, I found out that I can still ping device between Vlans. Is there anything I miss here ? or this is a nature design of the Cat3550 that I need to use VlanMAp/Accesslist on Vlan ?
