Cisco SGE 2000 Switch VLAN Configurations

Hi,

I currently have a Cisco SGE 2000 Switch.  The switch has been reset to factory default.  All ports were on VLAN 1 but I created a new VLAN 5 and put all ports on VLAN 5 instead.  All the ports are set as Untagged Access ports under VLAN 5.  I configured the new IP, Subnet, and Gateway of the Switch to point to the SonicWALL TZ215 Firewall which connects to the Modem for internet.  The SonicWALL has already been configured correctly using Port 4 to connect the Switch with DHCP, etc…

I then plugged an Ethernet cable into Port 1 of the Switch which connects to the SonicWALL on Port 4.  I then plugged a spare laptop into Port 2 of the Switch to see if I could get internet.  Everything worked correctly for getting an IP automatically from the SonicWALL.

I decided to then create a new VLAN 10 and dedicate Ports 13-23 on the Switch to be part of VLAN 10 instead of VLAN 5.  So as of right now Ports 1-11 on the Switch are part of VLAN 5 and Ports 13-23 are part of VLAN 10.  Also remember that Port 1 on VLAN 5 connects to the SonicWALL which goes out to the internet.

If I try to connect to Ports 2-11 with the spare laptop, it gains access to the internet.  When I try to connect to Ports 13-23 it doesn’t get access to the internet.

How am I able to connect to Ports 13-23 and be able to gain access to the internet just like Ports 2-11?
I’m using the GUI Interface for configuring everything on here for the Switch as I find it easier.  If someone could please assist me with what needs to be done through the GUI if possible that would be great.

Thanks

Can you issue SHOW RUN command and copy/past the config?

try taking out port authentication on one of the ports and then try it.
I cannot comment on the GUI side easily, but if I am understanding you now have two vlans, and the router(sonicwall) is on port 4 (I know you said 1 as well, but it does not matter).  Sense 1-11 are access ports on VLAN, and 13-23 are access ports on VLAN 10, they cannot talk to each other without a router.

The sonicwall will either need to be setup to trunk VLAN 5 and 10, along with switchport 1 trunking 5 and 10 as well:


Switch:
switchport trunk allwed vlan all
switchport mode trunk

Another option is to use another port off the sonicwall and assign it an IP on VLAN 10 and connect to access port on VLAN 10 as well.

Hi

The following is a summary of the Cisco Switch Configs.  Nothing special has been done besides the following:

VLAN 5:
Ports 1-11
Port 1 of Switch connected to Port 4 of SonicWALL
Port 3 of Switch connected to Testing Laptop (Internet Success)

VLAN 10:
Ports 13-23
No Internet Access on any ports

Below you will find my Config for my HP Procurve that I have in my testing environment.  As you can see, the internet vlan is VLAN 5 with an untagged port 1.  In the rest of the VLANs you see that port 1 is tagged, gaining the other vlans access to VLAN 5.  

I was trying to accomplish something like this on my Cisco Switch but am a little confused since the terminology is a little different.

Please let me know of any suggestions.

BSCHAPER:
- I'm probably going to have to go with what you suggested but am a little confused on how to go about it as I'm not that efficient in the command line.  As you can see from the example above from my HP Procurve, it's already set up correctly on the SonicWALL accepting all the VLANs and what not.  So I guess what I'm now asking, is how can I get this Cisco Switch to be identical to my HP ProCurve Switch?
