I am trying to use Interface Grouping to segregate ports from each other but still connect to the internet.
I can set up a new group to support a port but it will not allow me to assign any ip addresses to it.
In LAN > Configuration if I use a new IP range nothing is seems to be assigned and DHCP does not work.
If I try and use the same IP range as default it is blocked as an error.
How can this be achieved as I do not want to have to buy a specific VLAN box as this is one reason why I purchased the 8900.
Thanks

1. Click on Configuration >> LAN >> Interface Grouping
2. Click on 'Add'
3. Enter a 'Group Name' eg LAN1
4. Under 'Available LAN Interfaces' select your 'LAN port' and click on the arrow pointing left, so the LAN port should now be added to 'Grouped LAN Interfaces'
5. Click on 'Apply'
6. Under 'Group Isolation' tick the box and click on 'Apply'
7. Click on 'LAN >> Ethernet'
8. Under 'Group Name' select your isolated group you created in step 3 for this example I used 'LAN1' (very important)
9. Change the 'IP Address' and 'Subnet', and the 'Start IP Address/End IP Address' and click on 'Apply'

Should the IP Address be part of the same subnet 192.168.0.* or different 192.168.1.*

Re: Port level VLAN
The main group IP is normally 192.168.1.254 , DHCP range 192.168.1.100 ~ 192.168.1.199 (by default), the second group should be different eg IP 192.168.0.x DHCP range 192.168.0.x ~ 192.168.0.xtrb143 wrote:Thanks
