Regarding the cascade i will avoid doing this as SWITCH1 would be a single point of failure. You can try to connect them separetly to seperate ports on the FW as access port and taggued the vlan internally where necessary if needed.</P> Wed, 02 Feb 2022 19:29:08 GMT K_montalvo 2022-02-02T19:29:08Z Will this configuration work? https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Will-this-configuration-work/m-p/140263#M27011 <P>I will configure 14 VLANs in total. I will connect all Firewall Interface to one of the L2 Switch and I will cascade the other L2 Switches with that L2 Switch. In this case, do we need Trunk? Please check if any problem with such configuration.</P><P>There will be no L3 switch and the Firewall will do all the routing.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="FW-L2 Switch.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/15209iCC549347AED3A119/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="FW-L2 Switch.png" alt="FW-L2 Switch.png" /></span></P> Wed, 02 Feb 2022 15:54:25 GMT https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Will-this-configuration-work/m-p/140263#M27011 Satyam1 2022-02-02T15:54:25Z Re: Will this configuration work? https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Firewall-and-Security-Management/Will-this-configuration-work/m-p/140288#M27012 <P>For more than 1 VLAN in one cable you need trunk port.
