More than 1 IP address for LAN if
-
Is there a way to configure a secondary IP address for the LAN interfase? Our internal network is divided in subnets to split departments, but they all reach the firewall to go to the Internet.

Traditional FreeBSD alias' are going in 1.3, you can add them manually adding the shellcmd into the config.xml. Search around and you should find details. The other alternative is to use VLANs.
-
You should really put them on separate switches, or use VLANs, that's the proper way to do that. There's no sense in splitting up departments into subnets if they're all on the same broadcast domain.
If you insist on adding multiple IPs on a single interface, see:

Would this be the same for vlans? I tried to enter a VIP but i can't get anything to go through on a vlan. I would try doing the manual entrys it but this machine is live 24/7 and don't have another layer 2 switch to test.
-
I don't understand what you are trying to do. Why would you need an alias address if you're using vlans? The original question was about adding an alias on the LAN because the network wasn't properly vlan'd…
-
We have a web server that has a class of address and we are adding another class to the same server. The ip's that we are getting are not sequential and has a different subnet. On our old software we would add a secondary address to vlan adapter.
-
You should just be able to add the VIP in on the WAN interface where the IP is routed, then use the VIP for a port-forward. If you mean you have done this, but the WAN interface is a VLAN and it's not working, then I'm out of ideas. It should work, but I tend to keep my WANs on physical interfaces, so I can't confirm.
