Hi,
In a school scenario we have some D-Link DGS-1216T switches. An emulator of the webinterface of this switch can be found here:
The clue is that we need to be able to switch the internet connection to each classroom ON and OFF independently. With the exception of port #16 all ports shal be connected to each other (and to the domain controller on port #15)just like a dumb switch. However we want to be able to control via the web interface which classroom(s) that should be granted access to the internet (port #16). This can be controlled with the VLAN feature, but I don't know how to do this with this switch.
I imagine that we need to create a VLAN of port #1 and #2 and call it Classroom_A, same for port #3 and #4 and call it Classroom_B etc.. Then we need to be able to check or uncheck Classroom_A's access/connection to port #16 (internet).
Can anyone familiar with VLAN switches open the emulator URL above and describe how to do this...?
Thanks a *lot* if someone has a few minutes...
best regards
Geir
