andrian Sep 22, 2016 #1 Hi, please help me. What I can connect two vlan for two hosts without use 802.1q switch?
phoenix Sep 23, 2016 #4 If the switch doesn't support 802.1q vlan tagging, then your hosts cannot use tagged vlans. Simple as that. The switch will only understand untagged (default) vlan 1, and will drop tagged Ethernet frames.

In that case, you can enable tagged vlans on the hosts, and pass tagged Ethernet frames between them. If you have enough network cards in a system, you can make your own "vlan switch", connecting to other stations.
