help, i just start learning networking. How to connect 2 or more vlan, for example i make 3 vlan (10, 20 and 30)

vlan 10 is from port 1 - 5, vlan 20 is from port 6 - 10 and vlan 30 is from port 11 - 15

EDIT: the X430 cannot do routing. You need either another switch, router, firewall or server to do the routing for you or you can perhaps try private VLANs, but I'm not sure the X430 can do that either.

What you need to do in a case like this is to enable routing between the VLANs. For that to work, you need to set an IP address on each VLAN too. If you want the switch itself to do the routing, you can use this:

configure vlan v10 ipaddress 10.0.10.1 255.255.255.0

configure vlan v20 ipaddress 10.0.20.1 255.255.255.0

enable ipforwarding vlan v10

enable ipforwarding vlan v20

Another approach is to have a firewall do the routing between the VLANs.

BIJIKADAL,

I think the X430 is a Layer 2 switch, and don't think it does any routing...

You may need to connect those VLANs to a router to pass the traffic between them....

Thanks,

Bill
