Linux vlan configuration
1. Connect the eth0 interface of your linux machine to the switch.
2. Remove the IP Address information on the eth0 interface # ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 # ifconfig eth0 up 3. Configure 2 VLANs on the eth0 interface using vconfig as follows (100,200 are the VLAN id's). If the 8021q.o module is not loaded, the vconfig command (when invoked first time) will automatically load the module. # vconfig add eth0 100 # vconfig add eth0 200 4. Configure IP on the VLAN interfaces # ifconfig eth0.100 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.252.0 up # ifconfig eth0.200 yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy netmask 255.255.255.0 up 5. Preserve the vlan configuration across reboots by adding it to configuration files. Create the appropriate ifcfg files for eth0, eth0.100 and eth0.200 in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ # cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ Contents of ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=no TYPE=Ethernet Contents of ifcfg-eth0.100 DEVICE=eth0.100 IPADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx NETMASK=255.255.252.0 VLAN=yes ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=none Contents of ifcfg-eth0.200 DEVICE=eth0.200 IPADDR=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy NETMASK=255.255.0.0 VLAN=yes ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=none Update /etc/sysconfig/network file to make the GATEWAYDEV use the public vlan interface. Contents of /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=un1xf00 GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.1 DOMAINNAME=dev.un1xf00.com GATEWAYDEV=eth0.100 6. The VLAN configuration on the server can be verified in the file /proc/net/vlan/config. Sample contents are shown below. VLAN Dev name | VLAN ID Name-Type: VLAN_NAME_TYPE_RAW_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD eth0.100 | 100 | eth0 eth0.200 | 200 | eth0 More at unix linux & storage
