Error adding VLAN's in pfSense 2.7 with ICE driver
-
I am using an Intel E823-L Network card which uses the ICE driver in pfSense 2.7
Adding a single VLAN to the Interface is fine, but if you try and add a second, third, or more, you get the following error;
ice0: Failure adding VLAN 530 to main VSI, err ICE_ERR_AQ_ERROR aq_err AQ_RC_EINVAL
Does anyone know if there is a way to resolve this issue and add more than one VLAN?

This is from the log files.

@Bruce74 I get the same error when booting up but everything is working fine on the network and in the web interface.

Thank you for your reply.
Can you assign more than 1 VLAN to the Intel E823-L network interfaces?
I get the error when trying to assign 2nd, 3rd, etc. VLAN to the network interface.

@Bruce74 I have the exact same report as you when adding 2,3, etc but not in the web interface only in the terminal does it report the failure. All the vlans are working as expected and if I didn’t look at the terminal I would never have noticed anything because the web interface works as expected. I have the intel E823-C btw.
-
Thanks for confirming it is working for you with multiple VLAN's I will give it ago and see what happens.
-
I have just tested and despite the "Failure adding VLAN" errors in the terminal VLANs are working.
Thank you.

@Bruce74 My pleasure!
