      Hi,

      I followed instructions from here. How To Setup VLANS With pfsense & UniFI. Also how to build for firewall rules for VLANS in pfsese

      My setup is VLAN70 on LAN.
      Interface > Assignment
      VLANs
      DHCP on VLAN70
      Firewall Rules on VLAN70
      VLAN70 Interface Status
      VLAN70 Interface Statistics

      Result:
      No packets captured on pfSense Packet Capture on VLAN70 interface.
      VLAN 70 configured on Unifi Switch wired network. Did not get an IP. Fixed an 192.168.70.x IP on laptop ethernet. Cannot ping VLAN70 gateway. Switch port set to vlan70 profile.
      Same for Unifi wireless network. Does not get IP address. Fixed an IP. Cannot ping VLAN70 gateway. Switch port for Unifi AP set to All Profile.
      The only difference between the video and my setup is that I do not have USG on Unifi Controller. That should not matter as I have read.
      I suspect that I am getting it wrong on pfSense. No VLAN traffic at all. What did I get wrong? Thank you.

          Thank you, @Grimson
          2 questions

          1. Why do we make OPT and LAN the same vlan?
          2. I have not made the changes to the VLAN table. Do I need to add a VLAN group 4 for VLAN Tag 70 as show in the pic below?

            You don't.

            You obviously need to tag your new VLAN on both ports of the switch.
