It's better to create two VLANs on the switch, one for the 'client' subnet and one for the 'server' subnet. You make the port for the client an access port on the client VLAN, and the port for the server an access port for the server VLAN. You can either run two cables to the router, one for each VLAN, or you can run one cable and create a trunk. You will then need the router to de-encapsulate the VLANs from the trunk. This is classic router on a stick configuration, which I think is in Cisco CCNA R+S ICND2.
Octaldump hit the nail on the head. If you are using both interfaces on the router, then an access port from each vlan should do. (pretending it is two separate lans on two different switches)
If not, then a single trunk port from the switch will carry vlan traffic from both vlans. The router will then do the routing to let these vlans talk.
Not much more to add. May I ask why this is in the N+ section? Is this really on the new exams? Maybe its to know the difference between trunk and access ports. Remember, trunk ports carry multiple vlan traffic. But you will need a layer3 switch or a router to "route" traffic to the proper vlan as these are now separate networks and the routers job is to not only break up broadcast domains, but to sit between networks to let them talk.
hit us up with more q's if you have.
