      I am trying to separate my network into VLANs for better security using a managed switch and wireless AP. I'm close to making it all work.

      I am able to connect to my VLAN over wireless on devices but they do not show up in the DHCP Leases table until I set them up with a static IP.

      Is this normal? Is there a better way to view what devices are connected to each VLAN?

        Huh, usually a VLAN is just another subnet with its own IP range, DHCP server etc.

        Maybe start with posting a drawing of your current setup.

          If your devices got an IP from the dhcp server, then yeah they are going to be in the dhcp lease table.. If your not seeing them, then they didn't get an IP from pfsense.
