VLAN's not working with pfSense and HP1810-24G Switch.

Herman,
did you configure VLAN10 on any other port of the 1810G switch apart from port 12?
The VLAN10 traffic has to enter the switch somehow. Usually you configure a trunk-port in the switch and in pfSense and interconnect those two.May I suggest you read about VLANs and Trunking a bit
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/book/vlan/index.html
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/interfaces/vlan-trunking.htmlI have no idea how VLANs are handled in Hyper-V.

Hi jahonix,
Port 1 of the HP switch is connected to the Virtual Hyper-V LAN port of the pfSense. I've configured port 1 as a static trunk port on the switch. Makes no difference. I read also a lot about trunking ports. Thank you for providing even more info. will be appreciated.
I have a strong feeling that I have to look in the Hyper-V switch corner, like Steve Scotter mentioned. But I am not sure. So I have to play around with that some more.
Regards,

Hi Steve-scotter,
Thanks for your reply. I was thinking in that direction as well. The pfSense LAN and WAN port are Hyper-V switches connected to a physical NIC on the Hyper-V (Server 2016) host. De server has two physical nic's on board en a 4 port Intel server NIC interface card. So in total the server has 6 physical nic's on board. In another post I've read some info about some power shell command regarding the Hyper-V nics.
Kind regards,

Hello,
This is the thread I found regarding some powershell commands were @bobtheninja talks about. Does this make sense?
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/81161/pfsense-hyper-v-vlans/3
Any help appreciated

Hi Folks,
I tried the following command. Somehow something went wrong.
This is the solution @bobtheninja provides. Any ideas?

I just went over this recently... Let me dig up the thread..
But yes you have to set trunk mode with powershell - not sure why messing with mac addresses? That thread is 2 years old..

edit: here you go
https://forum.netgate.com/topic/139891/solve-hyperv-2012-vlans-support-hn0/8I walked through how to do tagged vlans, with pictures ;)

Hi @johnpoz,
Wow. That is a lot of information. I have to dig in there. You were right. I messed up things. Messing around with the mac address was indeed no good idea!!! Now I have to wait till I am home because my whole config isn't accessible anymore :-(
I have to figure out the exact power shell command to do your trick. I have 2 nic's in de pfsense vm. A LAN and WAN. So I presume that I only have to alter the LAN vlan settings right?
For now I am not able to connect to the network anymore! :-( I hope I can reverse the settings i've made...

Hello Johnpoz,
I am back in business again. Was able to reverse my mes sup with the MAC address.
Let me show you what i Have done. That is after the restore :-)
Above you see the 2 virtual network adapters connected to my pfSense. one of them is the LAN and the other would be the WAN. cannot see that here. I think that is the reason why @bobtheninja was using the MAC address part???
Next I executed the following command.
After that evrything stops working. When setting the mode back to Untagged everything is working again.
My HP 1810 switch is configured this way;
Port 1 on the switch that is connected to the pfSense LAN interface is configured as a Trunk port
Any suggestions?
Kind regards Herman

You sure hp uses trunk in the same same with as cisco? WTF is static mode? Where are you tagging specific vlans?
-
Yes, there is a difference between HP and Cisco:

^ exactly!!! I thought they were different!

On the old forum I posted a question few years ago and ran into this terminology problem myself, you where part of it too johnpoz , misunderstanding all around as same here, but cannot find the post...
-
I have not had to touch an HP switch for years and years - and to be honest have no desire to any time soon... But yeah I recall terminology is different that cisco ;)

When I read the document Pipin provided HP uses tagged ports to carry multiple vlans.
Under mode there are the multiple option;

Hi Pipin, I really hoping you will ... :-)
It seems that my HP 1810-24G is the pain in the ass here.

I have the feeling you are not a really big fan of HP switches
You are tending more to Cisco? Is Unify also a good product?
gr. Herman

Not that not a fan of them... Just much more experience with Cisco, and the few times I have had to deal with HP.. Not impressed with them compared to the cisco use to working with.
For the price of unifi - you could get a pretty much full featured L3 switch from cisco small business line. The sg300 or sg350 line.. I just saw a sg350-28 on amazon for $179.. Its feature set far exceeds the same sort of price point from unifi.

Those are LAGG modes, nothing to do with setting up VLANs.
