Re: [Users] Create VLAN for WAN traffic

In a situation like this a common issue is that the host you are pinging does not have a route back to your VLAN so can't send the response. Can you monitor traffic at the destination and see if it's receiving your pings? Can you ping from the other direction? In my general networking experience creating a VLAN is simple. Teaching your LAN about your VLAN is harder, and requires external configuration of routes. -Bob On Dec 30, 2013 1:57 PM, "Neil Schulz" <neil.schulz(a)neteasy.us&gt; wrote: > I'm not very knowledgeable in VLANs.
