Best way to add vlan to the lan interface?
-
Hi all,
I am playing with vlans does days but I still have some issue affecting a vlan tag to the lan interface. Each attempts that I have made had result with a lost of the lan interface so I am wondering with on of you guys can give me the steps to achieve this.
right now, I have thisLAN (192.170.1.1) -> em1
LAN has also a DHCP attachedI have tried this:
- Add vlan to em1
- switch LAN from em1 to VLAN1
But at this point I loose my connectivity to the pf box
So I have tried:
- Add VLAN1 to em1
- Add OP1 to em1
- move OPT1 to VLAN1
- switch LAN from em1 to opt1
But I am not sure if this is the correct way.
Can you give me some hints or advice to add a vlan tag to the lan interface?
Thanks

Should we assume you've already read:
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/VLAN_Trunkingand
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Multi-WAN_using_VLANs_with_pfSense
Admittedly, the second link does much more than you want, but it should give you a decent overview of what you need to do.
Hint: Don't assign the LAN interface to em1, use the em1 interface as your trunk interface.
