New build - WAN blocking DHCP address request

AndyRH

I am building a new firewall (21.05-RELEASE (amd64)) and I am stuck. When I put the WAN on a VLAN it does not get a DHCP address. The logs indicate the request was blocked.

Using the very same interface without VLAN tagging it works. Have I missed something?

First off, why are you using a VLAN on the WAN side? Does your ISP require it?

Less important, but I am reducing cable usage on my switch by using 1 10GbE link instead of four 1 Gb links.
