COSI has allocated the following VLANs:

VIDNameActive?
1serviceyes
2cosi_privyes
3cosi_pubyes
4146no
5phonesno
6iotno
7camerasno

VLAN 1: service

Since this is the default VID on many switches, it is never configured to allow access to the internet. Whenever possible, it should be used for unassigned interfaces and to provide access to management interfaces for our switches.

VLAN 2: cosi_priv

This VLAN is our "default", and is behind our firewall. Any personal computer, or any server that does not need direct from the Internet should be here.

VLAN 3: cosi_pub

This VLAN has a direct connection to OIT, and is not protected by the firewall. Only servers that need direct, unfiltered access to the Internet (ex. Mirror) should be on this VLAN.

VLAN 4: 146

This VLAN was used for the 128.153.146.0/24 subnet, but is not currently active.

VLAN 5: phones

This VLAN was used for our VOIP phones. See Asterisk for more information.

VLAN 6: iot

For untrusted devices that require an internet connection (ex. smart home devices). It is currently unused.

VLAN 7: cameras

This VLAN was used for untrusted devices that do NOT require an internet connection. It is currently unused.
