      New Netgate 2100 system - First configuration not working as intended.
      The device I have has 4 ports available (excluding the WAN). When looking at interface assignments I am only showing WAN and LAN. Why cant I see the other ports even though they are showing on the main dashboard page.
      My intention is to set each port with a separate IP range and allow DHCP for each port to segregate the networks.

      I have attempted to setup VLANs (3 x factory reset) per each port and use DHCP, but I never get the range I am looking for, only the default range for the system is found.

      What am I missing?
      Thanks for your help.
      Joe

        It's because the LAN1-4 ports are connected internally via a switch. To use each port separately they must be configured as such using VLANs:
        https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/configuring-the-switch-ports.html

        If you have any problems with that or need to import an existing config dircetly open a ticket with us: https://www.netgate.com/tac-support-request
