Pfsense and VLAN
-
Hello
I have a pfsense running which has 2 interfaces 1 connecting to LAN and the other to WAN.
Now on the LAN side there is a dell powerconnect 2724 switch wich is used to connect other servers via the switch to the network. Now i am tring to configure a vlan so that i can isolate the WEBSERVER to lan on it's own.What i have done up to now is go on the switch created a vlan membership with id 2, set port 1 as T and then set the port settings so that port 1 points to PVID 2.
And on the pfsense i created a VLAN with tag 2, assigned an interface and assigned the ip range of the interface.
Then i went to the webserver and set the ip addresss.
but the issue is that i cant connect from the other pc's that are also connected to the switch to the webserver which is on that vlan.
Can anyone help me and i am new to networking by the way :)

Try using the search function. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=search
There were several threads very similar to this one alone in the last 2~3 weeks.
(like this one http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,24476.0.html )Just some questions i have from your description:
Since your server is now in it's own VLAN: Did you make sure you created a firewall rule on the LAN to allow access to the VLAN-OPT? -
Yes we have sorry i forgot to mention that
-
And the server can get to the internet?
Can you ping the server from the pfSense itself?
Can the server ping the pfSense?Could you provide a more detailed description what you tested, how you test, what worked, what didn't work, etc.
Also in your VLAN settings: did you configure the switch so not only the clients cannot access the server, but also the server cannot access the clients? (this could lead to problems)

no the server cannot connect to the internet.
I am testing by hosting a website on the server and trying to access it. I assigned NAT rules. and also rules on the lan to allow tcp between 2 interfaces and still nothing.
