  • 1.  VLAN Swap on Access Switch port - Best way to test it is working?

    Posted 03-02-2020 21:50

    Hi Everyone, 

     

    If I set up VLAN Translation (swap) on a Access Switch EX4200 port, how would it be the best way to test that it is working correctly, i.e swapping the VLAN? I would be using the following config on the EX4200 access port:

     

    root@access> show configuration vlans
    vlan-100 {
       vlan-id 100;
       interface {
          ge-0/0/0.0 {
             mapping {
                10 {
                   swap;

     

    Since VLAN Swap can only be set up on a Access port, can I connect another switch (e.g EX2200) into that port and have it act as a "Customer Device" with VLAN-10 for example and then have the swap to VLAN-100 occur on the EX4200

     

    Any help appreciated.
