Hello forum,
I need some help. I am not a networking expert. I am a noob to pfSense.
I have my set up functional as this:
Internet –> Cable Modem --> pfSense (Qotom) --> Dlink Switch (DGS1100 - 8 port easy smart) ---> Ubiquity AC Pro AP.
The way configured now is simple. No Vlans defined. That is the part I need help on.
What I want to accomplish is to have an SSID defined which will always route traffic via openVPN client (PIA). I have not defined the client yet - but I will be doing so once I am able to define vlans.
Should I define Vlans on pfSense and also on Dlink Switch? If yes how do I instruct the Vlan defined on pfsense to use a specific port of the switch?
The dlink Switch is only accessible on its own default IP. Should I connect to it and change it to an static IP of my choice so that I can access the web GUI of the switch?
The Unifi AC Pro AP also has capability to identify the vlan for wireless traffic. So I must probably identify the tag for specific vlans for a particular SSID. Am I right?
Appreciate the time spent on responding to my questions.
Regards
Guru
