      My mistake, the ARP request came from some Calix device.

      Here is the expanded log:

      Not a network engineer, so not exactly sure what I am looking at, but I don't see anything that specifically references VLAN. Unless PVST+ is some kind of VLAN like protocol.

      Editr: Search is your friend. It appears that PVST+ is a cisco brand Per VLAN Spanning Tree Plus. Though I don't see anything but a MAC address and ports, no IP to configure a VLAN from.

        Ok, I captured packets from WAN with nothing attached to make sure there was no activity, then started a new capture and unplugged the WAN from the ISP router and directly plugged it into the WAN on the Pfsense router

        This is what I got after 30 seconds of capture:

        It looks like a bunch of spam of IP 0.0.0.68 complaining about topology change. What is interesting is the bridge ID. Is that Pfsense or the ISP gateway?

        Well we can’t decode everything from this as that is only a summary “overview” of the capture. You need to open it in Wireshark or another pcap decoder application.

        However, a few things is obvious. Your ISP is not your average setup since they run Spanning Tree to the client edge - that’s a new for me - never seen that before :-)
        But there is also Cisco dynamic trunking protocol frames on the wire, so it seems your ISP is running some VLANs on the wire.

        The funny thing though… all the 0.0.0.0:68 frames is your pfSense trying to aqquire a IP address via DHCP - it doesn’t get any. So there is no Internet available to it - how on earth are you testing with success albeit very slow speed?

        Forgot to address the connection with no IP. It does get one, but it seems it is the wrong gateway. They are currently still building out the network in my area, so there may be some insecure patch devices in the line for workers to access? That's my only thought...

          Mmm, this does seem like either a VLAN is required or maybe priority tagging. Or possibly some DHCP client options.
          A pcap of the ISP router connecting would show it either way.

            So if I am correct in my understanding.... It sounds like I just need to make a VLAN based around the IP address in that ARP request.

            I have two IP's

            Sender IP address: 192.24.57.117

            Target IP address: 192.24.57.1

            Target has to be the gatway VLAN and I have to apply this to WAN device?

            Oh, and the Calix device is the ISP router, so this was a captured broadcast from the ISP router. I'm guessing I caught the echo off the gateway because it wasn't plugged into any switch. It was a really fast port swap and I had the recorder going when I did it.

            Did some more research, and the VLAN tag should be 57 based on the IP addresses I think.

              Easy enough to test. Create a VLAN interface with ID 57 on the current WAN interface (ix3?). Then reassign WAN to be that new VLAN (ix3.57).

                Tried that, but I think I am extrapolating the Tag ID wrong. as 57 did not work.

                I think it is the 802.1Q number I am after. Which is 0xa5 or a5 hex / 165 decimal

                    That was from the sub menus of DTP. It did not work unfortunately.

                    I also found Originating VLAN: 85 in PVST+ , but that did not work as well.

                    I am about to try PID: PVSTP+ (0x010b) or 267 dec.

                      I had the same issues on FTTH here in Switzerland.

                      It was the SFP+ when mounted in a switch. In a converter it didnt get an address and exposed th routers MAC to the ISP and everything worked perfectly.

                        From what I understand by reading a description of Cisco's implementation of PVST+, DTP is part of the trunk that the routers use in their network. So we can safely ignore that.

                        STP seems to be the client side of the VLAN. This being the most important information I can find in STP protocol:

                        Originating VLAN (PVID): 85
                        Type: Originating VLAN (0x0000)
                        Length: 2
                        Originating VLAN: 85

                        By my understanding that should make the VLAN 85, but that doesn't work. So there is still something missing.

                              Have you told the support that you want to use your own router?

                              So they will release the MAC and let you do that?

                                      Are there any dip switches in the converter?

                                        Ok, testing this locally I expect to be able to see the tagged traffic in the GUI packet capture if the view detail is set to full however there is some oddness there. I'm digging into that but it will show there if you do not filter like:

                                        19:36:07.585799 90:ec:77:1f:8a:5f > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 46: vlan 229, p 0, ethertype ARP, Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has 10.229.5.10 tell 10.229.5.1, length 28

                                        There is no question of which VLAN is in use there.

                                        You can also run at the CLI something like:

                                        tcpdump -nvve -i ix0

                                        And you will see all the traffic on the interface including vlan tags.

                                        Steve

                                          I copied everything from connection until response from a cisco router. I see VLAN 1 but I tried that and it gives me no IP. Same as any other VLAN I have tried.

                                            That's after setting VLAN1? It looks like dhcp requests from pfSense tagged as that.

                                            You might try switching the ISP router in and back out before the pcap to try to get some tagged traffic from the ISP as you did before with the ARP packet.

                                            Ultimately the only way to know for sure is to setup a switch with a mirror port so you can capture exactly what the ISP router is doing.

                                            The other thing is that you are almost certainly not the first person trying this. Someone else may have documented what's required for that ISP. Somewhere.
