PFSENSE Cluster add new vlan on existing used physical interface
-
Hello,
We have 2 pfsense's servers in cluster mode with latest version. We have several physical network interfaces. We need to add new vlan on existing physical interfaces that include several vlans.
We need to know impact please. If you add a new vlan on existing physical interfaces that include several vlans will we encounter a mini network outage ?
Thank you for your feedback at this topic
Best Regards

I wouldn't expect an outage to be very long, if at all. Of course, you also have to configure the switches to pass the VLANs. You might want to schedule a maintenance window to do this, or at least let the users know. Of course, TCP is designed to survive brief interruptions.

Hello ok thank you for your answer @JKnott. Yes of course, we have already configure the switches to pass the vlans. To understand steps please, if we add new vlan on existing used network card on pfsense master, primary pfsense switch automatically from master to backup and secondary pfsense switch automatically from backup to master ? would there be a micro network cut during the time of the switchover ?
Thank you very much for your time
