Hi,
I have a Dell N3024 switch and I need it to talk to a Cisco router (provided by 3rd party to act as the gateway to a dedicated leased line) over vLan 192.
The Dell N3024 has an EQL unit attached and it needs to replicate with another site. The leased line is in place to handle this traffic and there is one of these 3rd party Cisco routers at either end. So it goes something like this:
EQL <--> N3024 <--> Cisco at Site A <--> leased line outside <--> Cisco at Site B <--> N3024 <--> EQL
(I hope that makes sense)
Trouble is, the Cisco router cannot see the EQL unit at all. I have spoken to the 3rd party and they say they cannot see anything in the ARP table for that device.
Config (all I have) from the 3rd party on the Cisco router interface in question is:
sho run int gi0/1.192
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 152 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.192
description ***
encapsulation dot1Q 192
ip address 192.168.2.100 255.255.255.0
end
So they have set dot1q encapsulation. I am not sure how to set this on the Dell...with Cisco it seems easy but as far as I can see I have to set the switchport mode to 'general' and then add the vLan to it:
switchport general allowed vlan add 192
..which puts it into dot1q compliance - is that right?
The config off the Dell switch is:
!Current Configuration:
!System Description "Dell Networking N3024, 6.0.1.3, Linux 3.6.5-320b2282"
!System Software Version 6.0.1.3

The 10.149.x.x ranges and vLans are all working OK, and are not all used anyway. I have only included them for the sake of completeness.
The 'ip route' command - ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.250 - would that mess up vLan 192 communications?
Should I have an IP assigned to vLan 192?
The IP of the Cisco router is 192.168.10.100 - should I set that as a gateway somewhere?
I am sure there are other things wrong with that config, but right now I just want to know and understand why it won't talk to the Cisco.
Can anyone help? Please?? This is doing my head in...
Thank you
Duncan
