SG-1100 setup question

[aram535]

Hello,

I need to add a SG-1100 to my network.
This is my current setup:

{Cable Modem} -> {Google WIFI} -> Switch A -> Switch B

Cable Model provides a DHCP address for my public IP.
The GWIFI is current 192.168.1.1 and is the DHCP server.
192.168.1.0/24 is the rest of the network. Switches are VLAN capable but everything is on VLAN 0 right now.

NEW setup:
{Cable Model} -> {WAN =SG-1100= LAN} -> Switch A -> B
OPT -> Google Wifi

I'm thinking of turning off DHCP on the GWIFI, and use NetGate for that. Can a single /24 route across LAN and OPT? Anything else I need to know/think about?

P.S. The only reason I mentioned Switch A -> Switch B is after this is setup, I need to setup a VLAN isolation for a single port on Switch B, no access to the rest of the network but will need internet access.

Definitely.

Can a single /24 route across LAN and OPT?

Did you mean span? You can certainly route between LAN and OPT1, or you can span them with a bridge. How you want to do it depends how you want to group or isolate clients. You could plug a switch into LAN and then the wifi into that switch, for instance.

Yes, I meant can I span the network across the two interfaces. This is my first Netgate and my first pfsense. Where in the menus is the port bridging option?

The other option is a lot more complicated, I would have to setup routes between the two networks, have a DHCP server on that network (possibly the Google Wifi could keep doing that) but then it would have to be blocked form answering to the original network.

@aram535 I think you are looking for This optional guide shows the steps required to configure the LAN and OPT ethernet ports to be on the same VLAN.

Interfaces - Assignments - Bridges

The SG-1100 use Switchports, no need for Bridge.

I use VLAN 1 to with my, on the Opt is a UniFi AP with Guest Net tagged on top.
DHCP is on the pfsense, there a so many settings you could set if you need.
