 Cisco 2811 VLAN Usage
I inherited a network that has a Cisco 2811 router setup with the following: interface FastEthernet0/0 no ip address no ip route-cache cef no ip route-cache duplex full speed 100 ! interface FastEthernet0/0.18 description Data VLAN encapsulation dot1Q 18 native ip address 10.221.18.1 255.255.255.0 ip flow ingress ip flow egress no ip route-cache ! interface FastEthernet0/0.255 description Voice VLAN encapsulation dot1Q 255 ip address 10.255.255.1 255.255.255.0 no ip route-cache no keepalive I need some help understanding what Cisco has done here. I belive that interface FastEthernet0/0 has been setup as an IEEE802.1Q trunk port. The VLANS on this interface are VLAN 18 with interface 10.221.18.1 and VLAN 255 with interface 10.255.255.1. My questions is: Do I have to send packets to interface FastEthernet0/0 tagged? The switch that was connected to this interface had no configuration to it. I replaced that switch and things have stopped working. If I create VLAN 18 and VLAN 255 on my switch and assign ports to the VLANS, I assume this will correct my problems. Is my understanding correct?

Answer Wiki:
You do one thing, plz replace the encapsulation from dot1q to isl, then it would work properly. There are very rare chances to configure isl in place of dot1q encapsulation. So please put this following command : encapsulation isl 18 encapsulation isl 255 in place of encapsulation dot1q 18 native & encapsulation dot1q 255. Thanks & Regards, Bhupendra Singh +91 9650234666
