pfSense VLAN with GS110EMX
Hello there. I am trying to get some pfSense VLANs set up. Two physical ports on my pfSense box are connected to GS110EMX Smart Switches. Is there any way to make a VLAN tag for the switch itself to ...
I was able to actually figure it out, but thank you all! Closing this thread!
You are totally fine - my wording is entirely on me. I am just trying to figure out how to get VLANs on the pfSense box's physical ports - two of those ports have the Netgear switches connected to it. If I read correctly, I have to add a tag to the switch itself to be able to get it working with the pfSense-side VLAN
Somebody created a beautiful documentation of such a network, with "just" two predefined ports/subnets/security zones here in the German part of the community. Limitation is the way the Plus switches, not built and implemented on a managed switch core with a full VLAN management.
A long time ago, I had created some simple examples of a Plus switch, using the Adavnaced 802.1q VLAN config, Two active VLAN 10 and 20, some ports as simple access ports for each VLAN (port 1...6 for VLAN 10, port 7 & 8 for VLAN 20).
Cruciual is no other VLANs configured for the same ports, and correct PVID assigned according to the VLAN desired - where you want untagged frames entering the switch should end-up. Hope this gives some ideas, too.
