2724 can be configured with VLAN trunking ports.   Here are instructions on setting port 1 to a trunk (tagged vlans 201,301,401) and ports 2 (vlan 201), 3 (vlan 301), and 4(vlan 401) to access ports. - VLAN Membership page: click "Create VLAN" radio button, enter 201 in the vlan field, set port 1 to 'T' (for tagged), set port 2 to 'U' for untagged, click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Membership page: click "Create VLAN" radio button, enter 301 in the vlan field, set port 1 to 'T' (for tagged), set port 3 to 'U' for untagged, click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Membership page: click "Create VLAN" radio button, enter 401 in the vlan field, set port 1 to 'T' (for tagged), set port 4 to 'U' for untagged, click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Port Setting page: Leave "Interface" set to "Port 1", set "PVID" to 201 (not really necessary), set "Frame Type" to "Admit Tag Only", click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Port Setting page: Change"Interface" to "Port 2", set "PVID" to 201, click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Port Setting page: Change"Interface" to "Port 3", set "PVID" to 301, click "Apply Changes" - VLAN Port Setting page: Change"Interface" to "Port 4", set "PVID" to 401, click "Apply Changes"
Hi all, We have acquired another company, and I have inherited several PowerConnect 2724 switches.  I have no previous experience with Dell switches, since we are a Cisco shop. I would like to know if the PowerConnect 2724 can be configured with VLAN trunking ports (ports which forward traffic from multiple VLANs, often used for servers or for inter-switch connections.)  I have looked at the documentation but I'm still unclear on this. The switches are running OpenManage 1.00 software.  Any help anyone can provide is appreciated. Thanks, - Steve  
Does the PowerConnect 2724 support VLAN trunking?
