Hi guys,
I can't get the created vlan(s) enabled. Their states keep showing "disabled" and the "modify" button is grey.
In the "network connections" page, the physical NIC icon is blue, but the virtual NIC(s) is grey.
Anybody has an idea what's going on here ?
Here are some related data:
* The notebook is Dell Latitude / Windows 8.1 pro up to date / 64-bit.
* No VM installed, virtualization is by default enabled at the bios, though.
* Adapter teaming is OFF by default.
* The wired NIC type is Intel i218-LM / ProSet version 23.2 the latest release.
* The ethernet properties have the default values. "Advance Network Services Protocol" will be checked automatically once I create a vlan.
Here are some taken actions:
1- tested out the trunk (tagged) port of the switch by using a macbook and a usb2eth adapter.
2- tried to create 1 vlan only and restart the notebook.
3- tried to create 2 vlans and restart the notebook.
4- tried to assign the virtual NIC ip addresses manually and dynamically.
5- tried to disable it and re-enable it manually from the "network connections" page.
6- tried to turn off the wifi and start all over again.
Thank you in advance !
Henry
