That config would only be valid for a 2900XL or 3500XL, right? I'm not sure
how this would be configured on a Set-command switch like a 5000.
And IIRC, multi-vlan ports are not allowed if there are any trunk ports
configured on that switch, so that's something to watch for. I might be
wrong on both counts, so take this with a grain of salt! :-)

You can have the server be a part of both VLANs without having to do any
routing.. Here's a config snip with an example.
Everything defaults to VLAN 1, so no extra configuration on any of the
ports that will be only on vlan 1.
For clients on the second vlan, do this for every port that you want on
VLAN 2:
interface FastEthernet0/13 (or whatever port it is)
switchport access vlan2
now.. for the server, who you want to be part of both VLANs do this
interface FastEthernet0/1
switchport mode multi
swithport multi vlan 1,2
That will give you 2 seperate VLANs both being able to connect to the
server on port 1 (in this scenerio.)
Be careful, in this case machines on both VLANs can connect to to the
server, the server can connect to any machine on either VLAN, but clients
on VLAN 1 can not connect to clients on VLAN 2 and vice versa. For this
it would be beneficial to put a router in place to route between to two
networks.
Hope this helps!

Hi All,
I am new to this list so sorry if this has been asked before.
I am really confused about the benefits/setup of Vlans. The more
reading I
do on the subject, the more confused I get.
Say, I have a network of 100 users who all access a file server and
Internet
router. How can I split them up into 2 vlans when they all need to
access
the file server and Internet router. I know it is possible to use a
'router
on a stick' to enable communication between the vlans but can you
make the
file server/router members of both vlans without a separate router?
Are
there any performance/config issues by making them members of both
vlans.?
Also is there any way to assign ports to vlans other than manually
configuring them. For example say I had two subnets 192.168.14.0 and
192.168.15.0 on my network. Is it possible to automatically setup two
vlans
so the machines on the 14 subnet are assigned to 1 vlan and the
machines on
the 15 subnet to the other ( I know its possible to automatically
assign
based on Mac address - but that still means you have to find out all
the MAC
addresses on your network ).
Any info or pointers to further reading would be grateful.
Regards,
Darren
