Zyxel GS 1900-24E Cannot Connect to pfSense VLAN
-
I cannot seem to properly configure VLAN on my Zyxel switch to match VLAN configuration on PFsense . I reviewed and created VLAN configuration according to NetGate specification (VLAN, assignment, swtich, FW rule and DHCP) but still cannot get IP address when connecting PC to specified VLAN Port on swtich.
psfense configuration:-
VLAN = 103
-
list item inteface = enabled
-
FW= enabled for VLAN 103
-
DHCP Server enable for 103
-
swtich members properly configured and tagger for VLAN 103
Zyxel VLAN Configuration
VLAN ID = 103
VLAN Port = All Forbidden except port 23 (untagged)PC connected on port 23 does not get any IP lease from pfsense DHCP server on VLAN 103.

@rsanda72 I'm guessing you've created the VLAN in pfsense as part of the native LAN interface, in which case the port on your switch needs to be a trunk port tagging that VLAN.
Currently your traffic from the switch is landing inside the native LAN interface, thus won't be picking up DHCP.
I'm fairly sure you just need to make the Zyxel side a tagged interface for that VLAN and you'll be good.

@crucialguy - Thanks for the response. I took your suggestion and configured port on Zyxel to be tagged but still was not getting any IP from pfsense. Of course moving lan connection to another port I do get IP from native vlan. So I must have configure the VLAN on Zyxel switch incorrectly.
