Hello All
Can the Fortiswitch 108E support a 802.1q tagged link without configuring a native Vlan / Pvid ?
We wish to introduce some Forti108E to the an ISP supplied link.
I need to confirm that the Forti108E will support a 802.1q tagged link without a native Vlan / Pvid being configured on the uplink.
This would be an acceptable Switch to Switch design however it is appearing that the Forti108E requires a native Vlan configured on 802.1q interfaces.
Any info appreciated .
Thanks
Siobhán
Hi,
I know this is an old post, but why is setting a pvid a problem? For vendors where you don't specify the pvid it will be the native vlan, which is usually vlan 1. If you don't want it to be vlan 1 you can create a "dummy" vlan, say vlan 4000, and use that as your pvid. The best practice is to have a matching pvid on both ends.
