| [netopia] vlan setup with 2210
So I have a Netopia/Motorola 2210 dsl modem from sonic.net. I would like to have a concurrent bridging and routing setup with vlans so that my router (openwrt kamikaze 8.09.1 on a linksys WRT54Gv4.0) can have the public ip address from the redback router (dhcp) at sonic by bridging and also have the private subnet for managing the modem. I have attached two configuration files I copied from the modem with tftp, one with the vlan setup and one with just bridging. The vlan setup (netopia2210vlans) was weird because it seemed that the bridge was actually on vlan 7 instead of vlan 2, so I would have the private and public address on the vlan 7 interface of my router instead of public on vlan 2 and private on vlan 7. With the other setup (netopia2210novlans) it worked but the connection would hang after a few minutes. Instead I have now just turned on bridging and left all the queue and dslf-cpewan stuff in and it seems to be working ok, but i'd rather do traffic shaping on the router and not have dslf-cpewan at all.
Is this completely crazy? Does the ip passthrough work better for this situation than bridge mode? How can I make the novlans setup work better also? This »www.netopia.com/support/hardware···Clsc.pdf seems to be more for the 3300 series than the 2200 series but it was very helpful and overall a great explanation of how to use the command line interface of the netopia 2210 router (its way more than just a modem/bridge), and it says a vlan that should be routed should include the uplink interface, but thats not available in the web or telnet vlan configuration, and I'm not sure if thats what I want anyway. I've also attached the factory default configuration file for reference. Thanks for any tips. |

You should be able to add a ip address to routers wan/internet port, that ip address must be in the modems subnet |

| Yes, I did that and it works. I was just hoping somebody could tell me whats wrong with the configurations I posted. I'd rather not have the public and private addresses on the same router interface since its kind of hard to manage both dhcp (for public) and static (for private) configuration on the same interface, and the vlans would allow the dsl modem to use the router as its default gateway on the private vlan. |
