Thank you Seth, you provided a really good explanation of multiple vs single IDs with a managed switch, very much appreciated.A managed switch configured to VLAN tag by port can only add a single ID onto all traffic coming into a given Ethernet port.
I was trying to use the node as a normal AIMesh Node for Wi-Fi Clients (multiple VLANs) plus I thought I could somehow get the managed switch to assign multiple (Trunk?) IDs like GNP does when a VLAN capable node is attached to it (i.e. between Primary and Node). No such luck.
Your clarification that only a single ID is possible “wired or wireless” makes it a show stopper for me. I need Guest and IoT (VLANs 52 and 53) on the Nodes Ethernet Ports.
Guest and IoT (VLANs 52 and 53) Wi-Fi connectivity is fine on the nodes however, that works (albeit with interfaces limited by ASUS, refer yellow wording in AIMesh section of the GNP setup when you try and add too many channels per interface per node).
