I’m making an attempt to do one thing with a community that I do know might be carried out – however I’m not positive how greatest to realize it.
Because it stands, the Web connection arrives to a router, which is a Virgin HomeHub5. This virgin is then cabled to plenty of different community switches. All of this works properly, with the homehub managing DHCP and entry for all gadgets to one another and to the general public web. We will name this ‘Blue Community’.
I’d now like so as to add one other independant ‘community’ into the image. This extra community ought to be ‘distinct’ by way of it is DHCP server, and by default not permit any communication with the unique community. We will name this ‘Orange Community’.
I want to permit by configuration, public web entry to particular nodes on the Orange community occasionally. I’d additionally like to permit communication between sure gadgets on the Blue Community, with the Orange community occasionally.
An instance diagram of the topology mentioned above is right here:
All the Blue gadgets are literally a part of an present community, all of which works very effectively. The Orange half is an extension I need to make, I’m simply not utterly positive of a great way to realize the necessities.
Preliminary questions are:
- What piece of {hardware} can be prompt for the Orange field
- Am I lacking a trick right here (is there a greater resolution additional up the community topology nearer to the Virgin HomeHub5 for instance?)
- The NetGear GS108Ev3 do provide a VLAN functionality however it seems very fundamental. I could make as much as 8 VLANS per machine, which implies I may pop the Orange field on it is personal VLAN which I assume would imply it could possibly be ‘segmented’ and never allowed to speak with any of the Blue Community nodes, however that doesn’t give the granular entry management I hope to realize.
Trying ahead to some good concepts and good dialogue! Many thanks upfront for all of your assist.
