      I recently added a Netgate SG 3100 to my home network, including T-Mobile home internet, Eero 6+ mesh Wi-Fi, and numerous IoT devices, including a Blink Wi-Fi camera system. My current system with a Plex media server on Linux, numerous Macs and tablets works great.

      Project - to create a vLAN for the wifi blink camera system (or other devices). Blink does not accommodate a wired connection.

      I reviewed the netgate pfsense guide on configuring ports and do not see how to address my project: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/sg-3100/configuring-the-switch-ports.html

      Question—Has anyone had success configuring a VLAN for a camera system that acquires internet access from a mesh Wi-Fi system? Is there a tutorial or guide to help?

      Thank you in advance!

        @copz1998 Depending on your needs, eero has a guest SSID capability when in bridge mode. That would isolate those devices completely.

        Otherwise does your eero have the ability to host a second SSID for that VLAN?

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
