6624 vlan config, WISP network, untagged and tagged clients
Working for a WISP, trying to configure a Dell PowerConnect 6224 to pass both tagged and untagged packets. Was running as only untagged and service runs correctly. Some new equipment we are using requires a management vlan along with a customer data vlan. I have configured port xg4 (fiber port) as general with both the default untagged (1) and also with vlan tag 20. I have done the same to the additional ports that are required for our services to work. Port g23 is a backup line ran to our Ceragon radio equipment. The test piece of equipment only requires the management vlan, and must request DHCP from the EMS server. This is why I have not configured the customer vlan yet. I would like to see the requests coming back all the way to the server before enabling, as this requires me to move all of the customers to the new DHCP system. 1 step at a time, right?
To monitor this, I am watching for DHCP requests coming from a SkyPilot radio out in the field that is my test equipment. I see the DHCP requests coming back to the headend at the Ceragon but can not see the same requests at the switch using port mirroring of xg4 to g13, or when I set g13 as general and tagged as part of the same 20 vlan.
Part of the switch is our management vlan for our VMWare, and part of it is our iSCSI as you will see in the config below. I'm using the center section of the switch and xg4 to bring it all together, including customer internet access. All services to customers have until this time been running untagged and vlan 1 but from this point we will be breaking the network down into vlan groups.

It looks like you are needing to set up IP Helper
IP Helper
The IP Helper feature allows the switch to forward certain configured UDP broadcast packets to a particular IP address. This allows various applications, such as the DHCP relay agent, to reach servers on non-local subnets, even if the application was designed to assume a server is always on a local subnet and uses broadcast packets (with either the limited broadcast address 255.255.255.255, or a network directed broadcast address) to reach the server.
You can configure relay entries both globally and on specific routing interfaces. Each relay entry maps an ingress interface and destination UDP port number to a single IPv4 address (the helper address). You can configure multiple relay entries for the same interface and UDP port, in which case the relay agent relays matching packets to each server address. Interface configuration takes priority over global configuration. In other words, if the destination UDP port of a packet matches any entry on the ingress interface, the packet is handled according to the interface configuration. If the packet does not match any entry on the ingress interface, the packet is handled according to the global IP helper configuration.
To relay UDP packets received on any interface for all default ports to the server at 20.1.1.1, use the following commands:
console#config
console(config)#ip helper-address 20.1.1.1
You can read about configuration options for IP Helper in the CLI Guide page 711.
CLI Guide - support.dell.com/.../cli_en.zip
Page 553 in the User Guide also.
User Guide - support.dell.com/.../ucg_en.zip
You may also need to be aware that the management VLAN is not routable. If you need to route on VLAN 1 you can move the management VLAN with these commands.
console> enable
console# config
console (config)# vlan database
console (config-vlan)# vlan 99
console(config-vlan)# exit
console (config)# ip address vlan 99
console (config)# interface vlan 1
console (config-if-vlan1)# routing
Hope this helps,

I got it figured out. The xg4 and the g24 ports are the same port basically and so I had to make my vlan configuration on g24. Yes, I had not put in the helper yet, as I was working step by step. I wanted to see the requests coming across the switch before going any further.
Thanks for the help!
