Multiple VLANs using DHCP on each interface
-
No help on this one? DHCP works fine on the internal interface for our LAN, just not the OPT1 or OPT2 interfaces. Please help.
-
The VLANs 101 and 150 are connected to a switch or router? Make a small diagram of your infra.

The VLANs are 101 through 150 or 50 of them. All virtual interfaces on the OPT1 interface, connected to a switch on the inside network, trunked and passing all VLANs. When we set an address manually on clients connectivity to everywhere works. I have connected a PC directly to the interface and it will not get an address. With Wireshark running, I capture the ARP request, reply and DNS request no reply. I pasted the log from pfsense in the forum post. On the back end these are VMs using separate VLANs so they cannot connect. Thank you for helping me out. :)

I have to ask - is your pass rule allowing UDP? And does each subnet have their own pool of addresses?

I attached a snippet of the actual rule. You will see it is on VLAN101 Interface. Our setup is interfaces VLAN101, VLAN102, VLAN103…..VLAN150. All set up with this rule. Our subnetting scheme is also as the interface configuration. 192.168.101.0/24, 192.168.102.0/24, 192.168.103.0/24........192.168.150.0/24. We are setting up a virtualized pool of servers behind all this. One pool for each student consisting of a couple windows servers and clients to do some active directory training among other things. When we configure them with static addresses it all works well. DHCP is our only problem. As I pointed out earlier, we attached a laptop to the OPT2 interface. The current VLANs are all created on OPT1. From OPT2 DHCP is also not talking. Client sends a request, no answer, as observed with Wireshark. ARP works fine.
Got to be blocked somehow in these rules. Each interface only needs 1 rule passing any any, correct? Just like in the attachment. Thank you for helping out.

Rules are not your problem.
dhcpd Can't bind to dhcp address: Address already in use
is your problem.
Do you have another DHCP server somewhere or is your managed switch not passing DHCP?You did the obvious and enabled DHCP on each interface and defined a reasonable client range as well?

Only DHCP on the network with pfsense is pfsense. It is handing out addresses just fine on the LAN interface. That subnet is 192.168.1.0/24.
VLAN101 = 192.168.101.0/24
VLAN102 = 192.168.102.0/24
VLAN103 = 192.168.103.0/24
VLAN104 = 192.168.104.0/24
VLAN105 = 192.168.105.0/24
VLAN106 = 192.168.106.0/24

VLAN150 = 192.168.150.0/24Thank you, jahonix. I got the joke but a couple of my students did not. I need to work on them a bit.

I attached a snippet of one of the DHCP services for VLAN101.

Try a reboot.

I am at a loss for words. Glad and upset with myself at the same time. Can't believe I did not try that. It absolutely worked. DHCP is up and running on all the VLANs. Thank you
