FS#2986 - Functionality broken by migration to DSA for Ubiquiti ER-X #7756
Comments
mar-kolya: This is probably related to FS#1622 but for different HW. |
dl3it: related to bug #2981. For shure, it is good to see DSA is working. But releases with DSA enabled are useless unless the configuration is fully supported. BTW, openwrt documentation for DSA is non existing. Most likely for a good reason :-) So please... Either provide configuration examples for using DSA with openwrt/LUCI or switch back to swconfig. |
n8v8R: The correct method for VLAN management of DSA ports (switch downstream ports) is via the [1] [[https://www.linux.org/docs/man8/bridge.html]] |
mar-kolya: Hi n8v8R, thank you for your response! Thank you for providing those links. I've seen them before I've posted this bug. Unfortunately I was not able to setup 'tagged' port that has multiple vlans (i.e. pvids) passed through it. I do no think any of the links provide an example for this and FS#1622 suggests it may not be possible with DSA. Am I missing something? Would really appreciate your help. |
n8v8R: The forum has this thread [4] particular to the device/issue, citing some sort of patches. The thread though seem to exhibit a bit of confusion (and redundancy deployment) on tag management on DSA ports (//bridge v// vs. //virtual interfaces//) IMHO FS#1622 is unrelated, because:

Try to reproduce it with latest 22.03-rc2 or development snapshot and report back, we can re-open the ticket. |

Hi.
I have Ubiquiti ER-X which I have been using for quite a while and it was working just fine.
I was using it to route traffic from external internet connections to a 'trunk' port connected to a different OpenWrt device used as access point. So to clarify: I have one of the swich ports configured as 'tagged' ('tunk') for multiple vlans.
Unfortunately commit 30644bc that switched this device to use DSA for switch configuration have completely broken this setup.
And I'm not talking abut soft bricking - that was to be expected. Unfortunately DSA doesn't provide functionality that was available in swconfig for years. Namely it seems to be impossible to configure switch ports to be 'tagged'.
It looks like DSA is considered to be 'the future' but unfortunately it doesn't see to be ready for prime time - it seems to be impossible to use DSA enabled devices in configurations that were perfectly possible before.
