Configuring non T1 wan

I'm sure this has been asked and answered many times but I could not find anything in a quick search.

I've inherited a simple network that had a T1, connected to the WAN-T1 port on the back of a NetVanta 1224R switch, and a single device in port 1 of the switch that controls a billboard. (all configuration changes done on a laptop I connected to port 17 if it matters) The company cancelled the T1 and got a fiber connection instead, but did not look at the other devices to see what changes would be needed. They just called me when the billboard lost connectivity.

I tried to just switch the cat5 running to the back of the unit to the new fiber switch instead of the t1 smartjack. However when I went into the configuration page to reconfigure it that port seems to be "T1 1/1" and only supports T1 settings, (limited speed and such)

I then tried to reconfigure port 24 to be the 'default' VLAN and configuring it's static IP to be the one provided for the fiber connection, but I could not ping the gateway IP. (I could ping the static IP I configured on that port.)

My question is, which is the better solution. Is there a way to force the "Wan-T1" port on the back to be standard ethernet? Is there a way to make port 24 the "WAN" port and route traffic through that? I'm ok with either solution, but currently can't get either to work. Is it possible or do I need a new switch/router instead?

Any help would be appreciated.

Charles this topic is covered in this thread VLan & Routing and here is a link to the config guide Configuring InterVLAN Routing in AOS - Quick Configuration Guide

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

Sorry, but you cannot reconfigure a T1 port to be an Ethernet port. Despite the fact they are both RJ45 plug connections,  T1 (if that's a plugin card in your switch) hardware operates on different physical and electrical principles and protocols. You would need to configure a vlan interface first and apply an IP address to the interface. Then you would need to build a port as an access port and allow that vlan on that port. IE - switchport access vlan 100. That physical switchport now becomes your wan connection to the world.

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

I removed the t1 card once I learned it could not be used for ethernet.

The netvanta router automatically made port 1 the internet port so I made that the devault vlan and configured the ip on it. I put the cord to the billboard on port 2 and my laptop on 16.

I can now ping both the ip on the netvanta and the gateway, however I cannot reach the internet.

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

Removed some old routing and rip entries. latest stripped down config I can still ping gateway but not further.

I put the external ip on laptop and tested the fiber connection. browsing works fine so not ISP isue.

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

You still have not "allowed" your vlan (vlan 1) on the physical interface that is your WAN.Your config appears to be using vlan 1 to connect to your ISP, but you need to allow your physical port access to vlan 1. Edit eth 0/1 if its your WAN interface and aloow vlan 1 over it. Switchport access vlan 1

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

Doh, figured something simple. I'll be back onsite tomorrow morning and I'll give that a try. Thanks for all your help.

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

It appears to be allowed.

editing the physical interface I do not see where to set vlans.

Re: Configuring non T1 wan

According to your GUI screenshots, vlan 1 is allowed. however I would have expected eth 0/1 to look like this:

!

interface eth 0/1

  description External Interface to ISP

spanning-tree edgeport

  switchport access vlan 1

  no shutdown

!

Unless you know for certain that your ISP provider is handing off to you a 10meg PHYSICAL 10BaseT interface, you're better off with setting your speed parameter to "AUTO" and not hardcoding it for 100Meg or 10Meg normally. The hardware 'speed' is not the same as the 'bandwidth' that you're paying for from your provider.
