      Despite my most sincere efforts, I can not obtain functionality of VLANs on pfsense 1.2.3.
      I have pfsense configured as follows:

      Switch:

      Fast Ethernet 0/1 has been configured as a trunk and has been connected to bge0.


      I was hoping that when I plugged my laptop into switchport 2 I would get an address in the 192.168.10.2-192.168.10.254 range, and if plugged into switchport 3 I would get an address in the 192.168.20.2-192.168.20.254 range.
      Not working. Any ideas?

        You're missing trunk port in that switch. that port should be connected to pfsense.

          also might want to change the 'PVID' on client ports … otherwise your untagged packets from clients will go to the default VLAN1

            Edit: Success. I had to add switchport trunk allowed vlan add x where x is the vlan id. I wasn't putting "add" in there. Then things worked perfectly. Plugged in to fa0/2 I get 192.168.10.x and fa0/2 I get 192.168.20.x. Solved!
