The 5424 is strictly a Layer 2 device and has no Layer 3 (routing).  Does the Linksys RV082 have a layer 2 switchport port or can one of the ports be configured as a switchport instead of a ip (layer 3) port.  

If that is possible, then you would create a trunk on the port connecting to the Linksys RV082 and the same on the Linksys RV082 side.

Example of commands to create a trunk switchport on the 5424:

Console (config)# interface ethernet g8

Console (config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan add 2,5-8

Also,  Defining VLAN Ports Settings from the WebGUI.  Page 331 of the User Guide for the 54xx series switch discusses the options for configuring a VLAN port.

User Guide: ftp.dell.com/.../powerconnect-5448_User%27s%20Guide_en-us.pdf

The VLAN Port Settings page contains fields for managing ports that are part of a VLAN. The port

default VLAN ID (PVID) is configured on the VLAN Port Settings page. All untagged packets arriving to

the device are tagged by the ports PVID.

To open the VLAN Port Settings page, click Switch→VLAN→Port Settings in the tree view.

• Port — The port number included in the VLAN.

• Port VLAN Mode — The port mode. Possible values are:

– General — The port belongs to VLANs, and each VLAN is user-defined as tagged or untagged

(full 802.1Q mode).

– Access — The port belongs to a single untagged VLAN. When a port is in Access mode, the packet

types which are accepted on the port cannot be designated. Ingress filtering cannot be

enabled/disabled on an access port.

– Trunk — The port belongs to VLANs in which all ports are tagged (except for one port that can be

untagged).

– Customer — The port belongs to VLANs. When a port is in Customer mode, the added tag

provides a VLAN ID to each customer, this ensures private and segregated network traffic.

• PVID (1-4095)— Assigns a VLA N ID to untagged packets. The possible values are 1-4094. VLAN

4095 is defined as per standard and industry practice as the discard VLAN. Packets classified to the

Discard VLAN are dropped.

Hi Willy,

I do not believe the RV082 is capable of trunking.

I only need to have one VLAN set on the switch. Port g1 will be the uplink port on the switch that goes to my router.

Would this look right for the commands:

Console (config)# interface ethernet g1

Console (config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan add 1

If that is not correct, what would I need to use?

I'll give that a try and let you know. Thanks Willy!

Willy,

That did it. Things look good now. Thank you!

Glad to hear it.  

Thanks for updating the post about your solution.
