Creating a vlan on secondary switch
I have the following setup on my home network and am trying to make a vlan with it’s own subnet and connection. My router is pfsense 2.4.4. It’s connected to a GS108Tv2 which then connects to a GS1...
I figured out how to set it up. I'm using pfsense as my router. pfsense connects to port 4 and 5 on the gs108t (5 being redundant pfsense box). I have vlan1 on the 108 with port 1 marked as T and all others as U. I created vlan10 with ports 1, 4, and 5 marked as T and all others unmarked. On the GS105E I have vlan1 with port 1 as T and the rest as U. I created vlan10 with port 1 as T and all others as U. The PVID of ports 2-5 is 10. Vlan 10 is now identified by pfsense and is being served it's own subnet set of IP's. I hope this helps someone else.
Port 1 is the trunk link between the switches. I had changed the port to tagged on both vlan 1 and 10 based on some things I read. In that scenario, I cannot get any IP generated on vlan 10. In the original scenario woth port 1 on vlan 1 as untagged, I was getting IP’s but not from the vlan network 10, which had a different range.
