5-6 C HAPTER 5: A DVANCED M ANAGEMENT
Example 2
The example shown in Figure 5-6 illustrates two
VLANs spanning two Switch 1000 units. VLAN 1 is
able to talk to VLAN 2 using the connection
between each VLAN and the router. Ports within the
same VLAN but on different Switches communicate
using the VLT.
To set up this configuration:
1 Use the VT100 screens or VLAN Server database to:
a Place ports 1–6 and 13–18 of both Switch units
in VLAN 1.
b Place ports 7–12 and 19–24 of both Switch units
in VLAN 2.
2 Connect port 26 of the higher Switch to Server 1.
3 Connect port 26 of the lower Switch to Server 2.
4 Use the VT100 screens or VLAN Server database to:
a Place port 26 of the higher Switch in VLAN 2.
b Place port 26 of the lower Switch in VLAN 1.
5 Connect a port on the higher Switch to a port in
the lower Switch.
6 Use the VT100 screens to specify that the
Switch-to-Switch port on the higher Switch is a
backbone port and a VLT port.
7 Use the VT100 screens to specify that the
Switch-to-Switch port on the lower Switch is a VLT
port.

router.
9 Connect a VLAN 2 port on the lower Switch to the
router.
