Creating a Trunk Port in SMB 1430 appliance.

[andresdiaz]

Hi all.

I'm so confused in order to create a trunk port in SMB1430 appliance, for connecting to a Switch where VLANs are defined.

Checkpoint appliance will take the DHCP rol for serving IP addresses to the switch-connected servers or computers.

I not able to find any documentation for undestanding how physical interfaces / VLANs / Bridges work.

Anyone than helps me, please?

Many thanks.

Did you attempt the configuration per sk106348?

Depending on the specifics you might need to use the DMZ port.

To create a bridge or a VLAN trunk, you will first need to unassign LAN ports from the LAN1_Switch.
Once you've done that, you can:

• Create a bridge between two ports
• Use a single port on a different LAN segment (no VLAN tags)
• Create a different switch to assign the ports to (with a different network segment, again without VLAN tags)
• Create a VLAN trunk (define each VLAN you wish to be available on the interface with the relevant network configuration)
