Re: EdgeRouter PoE - VLAN and Switch

No, the ER-5 is not "vlan aware".  All three ports (eth2,3,4) will carry VLAN1 untagged / VLANs 2 & 3 tagged.

 

If the PCs are capable of handling VLANs, this'll work out okay.  Otherwise, you'll need an intermediate switch to handle per-port VLAN assignments.

 

Moving the UAP to port1 would make it feasible, but "eth1 VLAN1" will be a separate network from "switch0 VLAN1", and you would need to route between those two networks.  Really you don't lose any performance - the biggest hit would be the annoyance factor of making dlna / mdns / bonjour work between eth1 and switch0.
