 VLAN DHCP problem between Router and Switch
Cisco Catalyst 520, DHCP, Netgear switches, VLAN, VLAN configuration
I have a Cisco SA520 Router connected to a Netgear FS726TP Switch. Router has 3 Vlans. 
Management VLAN 1 /29 
Hosts VLan 5 /27 
VoIP Vlan 10 /27 
Router Ports 1 and 2 are setup up identically, in Trunk Mode each port and all VLAN's should be accessible through it. 
Port 3 Vlan 5 
Port 4 Vlan 10 
Swithc is set like this 
Vlan 1: Port 24 untagged, port 26 Tagged (Router) 
Vlan 5: All ports Tagged 
Vlan 10: Ports 1 to 12 Tagged and port 26 tagged port 24 tagged 
PVID: Port all Ports VLAN 5 
So I can get an IP from DHCP of vlan 1 conneted to port 24 on my management laptop, but I can't get IP on hte other ports, I tried untagged or tagged and is the same. If I connect to the router on the port 3 or 4 I get an IP for each vlan. I will set the Phones with Mac address on DHCP so they can take an IP from Vlan10 and the PC's connected behind the phone will stay on Vlan 5 ANy ideas why I'm not getting DHCP replay behind the switch?

Answer Wiki:
Just at first glance, seems there's a few minor glitches in the config: Vlan 5: All ports Tagged + PVID: Port all Ports VLAN 5 = Kinda killing yourself there - PVID = Native VLAN = Untagged ports, so tagging them is counter-productive You fail to mention how the SA520 is set-up to Handle DHCP: What is doing DHCP? Is the DHCP "server" on a different VLAN than the Hosts? Do you have DHCP forwarding / ip helper addresses configured? Just from what you've written, You COULD config the switch as follows: - VLAN 5: All ports untagged, set PVID to VLAN 5 (PCs dont do VLAN tagging) - VLAN 10: Tagged on all ports (Phones can read/write VLAN tags) - Port 26 (to router) : Untagged VLAN 1, Tagged: VLAN 5 / 10 - Ensure DHCP server is set up, and router has ip helper addresses pointed to the DHCP servers IP address Not sure why you'd need ports 3/4 set to the VLANs if 1/2 are Trunking w/ ALL VLANs...
