Hi,

Can somebody please help with advice on which Draytek product can support the following setup.

Current setup
Draytek 2820, HP 1810 48 port smart switch.

The wan connection is just a standard adsl at the moment.

The environment is multiple small offices, 10 of them, all the offices need internet access, but to be separate from each other for data security. At the moment 4 vlans are setup on a HP 1810 smart switch like so;

Vlan 1, PVID1, default management vlan
Office1, PVID2, ports 2,3,4,5 all untagged, port 48 tagged
Office3, PVID3 ports 6,7,8,9 all untagged, port 48 tagged
Office4,PVID4 ports 10,11,12,13 all untagged port 48 tagged
Internet, PVID 20 port 48 untagged, but all other ports are tagged

Vlan1, 2 and 3 all access the internet fine and cannot see each other, but vlan 4 or any further vlans cannot access the internet. I spoke to a technician who who said that it was probably limited by the router, a draytek 2820, which does not support multiple subnets, nothing is configured on the router vlan wise at the moment apart from standard 4 port vlan enabled.

I need a router which will support additional vlans being created on the switch as above, is there a Draytek which would support untagged traffic from one port to multiple vlans on a HP smart switch?.

Any help appreciated.

2830, 2860, 2925 (non adsl), 2960 (non adsl), 3900 (non adsl) should all do it -
Going by the fact you have an old 2820 the 2860 would be the best one to go for you will need to go for 2960 or 3900 if you need for than 6 multiple subnets

Thanks sicon, it looks like I need the 2960 as I will probably need 10+ vlans.

I am currently using an adsl connection on the Draytek 2820, but I suppose I can get a vigor 120 modem to allow connection to the 2960 ethernet wan port.

For the configuration of the vlans. Am I right in thinking that I can just continue to use lan port 1 as the trunk port from the 2960 to the switch, then as long as I match the vlan id number on the router and the switch that it should work?.

Thanks in advance.

Yes that's right, you can also use the old 2820 as a modem to save getting the 120
