So, expanding on the notion all vlan configuration, access and trunk, standardize under the vlan stanzas, kindly elucidate how that would look. I grok the concept and sentiment (and as much as I am enjoying the Junos Enterprise Switching book, this "best-practice" stuff isn't really covered, at least as of p.398), I would be grateful to see what your stanza's might look like. Based on this thread, I've HOSED my (EBay bought) EX3200-24T's config, and am starting from scratch.
For instance, got my ge-0/0/0 lashed to a Cisco 2900XL (regrettably, at 8MB memory I can't change native-vlan) as a trunk. Then, ge-0/0/12, 22 and 23 are all access-ports, vlan 22. Port ge-0/0/11 loops back to the EX3200's management port (which I'd like to be within 10.10.10.0/24, along w/ Cisco management). Haven't quite got to logical units yet --read and re-read this thread. From 3Fives, I see the access-port stanzas clearly enough, can guess what the vlan trunk stuff'll look like, yet would love to see how you (or others reading this) might do . Bit of a religious discussion.
Speaking to management, in a perfect world the management vlan would be something OTHER than 1, but the 2900XL I have evidently can't be changed w/ only 8MB memory. My LAST config I disabled vlan 1 on the Cisco, and just did everything at vlan 22 (192.168.1.0/24), the trunk set to pass all vlans, and assigned addresses within that subnet to anything hanging off the access-ports, me0, and the Cisco's vlan 22 l3 interface. Bad arrangement. It all WORKED --everything could talk to everything else, including Internet-- but I'd like to hear your take on that/how you might do. I liked your 3Fives thread, and am interested in the change in sentiment on this forum thread as well.
Bleh.
After a day of MEF, NLAN, and IPVPN, my head is spinning. Hope all this made sense.
