Grandstream GCC6010 - Setting Up The Network

[@allen80602]

Absolutely love the setup tutorial on the 6010 - nice job! I'm trying to decide which Grandstream router to buy and I have a question you may be able to answer: With the 6010, is there any ability to do inter-VLAN tag/untag on the routing tab, or do I absolutely need the switch to do that? Thanks so much in advance!

Hey, thanks very much indeed. The 6010 of course not only is a Router but it also has a PBX included in it, although you don't have to enable that option, in which case you can just use the Routing function in it and add on (enable) the PBX later should you wish. The good thing about the GCC6010 and 6011 is that they have 2.5Gbit WAN ports (SFP ones) and also a 2.5Gbit SFP LAN port too. In answer to your question, you can create VLANS on the GCC and you can tag those VLANS to any of the LAN ports as you wish. Hope that helps.

Oi Oi 'J' ahh you're too slow, I beat you to it. In fact I'm just about to drop video #3 in the series shortly! Mind you I will let you off as you've been away I think, hopefully vacation was good! Hopefully you'll get some tips/tricks from my vids then. One thing, save yourself hours and hours of video re-recording and editing so much, don't do your videos blind, test it yourself first, reset the box and then do your setup videos so you've practiced first, as I found out! Really looking forward to seeing your video series too! The more you look in to these GCC boxes the more you find and they are great, it's so easy to get hooked in to the interface, so clean, easy to navigate and very powerful box too!

@@MrTimTech2022 I'm late because i don't want to call my ISP to change my Mac address to get my GCC on line with a proper WAN address :(. They don't have mac clone in the boxes yet :(. I've been playing with mine lots though.
