        It looks like the AR8151 driver can be assigned to a single VLAN ID. What do you have in the property for VLAN ID? Try entering 20.

        In my driver, there is a VLAN tab to add vlans. In this approach, the parent interface and child vlans are handled by the driver.

          changing it in the nic doesnt do anything ! same result as before exactly (change it => delete the link between pfsense and switch => wait a liittle => put it again, still vlan 1 + mac int of pfsense in the mac add table, and the two others from the end devices (with vlan 10 and 20). With the router in the place of psense i get the 5 correct entries) ><

          also : i get two entries sometimes in the mac add table of the switch coming from the int f0/0 (pfsense) with vlan1(everything coming from pfsense is only vlan 1 always it's like there is no vlan set) and int f0/1 (PC) (with vlan10)

          those entries come and go, and are not related to pfsense interfaces and i noticed its coming only from VMs. i guess its harmless anyway it doesnt do nothing

            I'm trying to bridge the pfsense interface with a microsoft loopback interface

            and connect the switch to the cloud's microsoft loopback interface but it's not working
