      Has anyone setup PFSENSE with a Metro Ethernet with VLAN.  I have tried different settings and can't get it working.  The ISP send me the following information (I changed the Ip's a bit).

      VLAN: 810

      WAN
      Interface: 200.105.153.161
      WAN Interface client: 200.105.153.162
      Mask: 255.255.255.252

      LAN
      Network: 200.105.154.88
      Mask: 255.255.255.248
      Default Gateway: 200.105.154.89

      I have not been able to find a post in the forum with this information.

      Can someone help me with a step-by-step on how to get this working….

      Thanks.

        Configure vlan id 180 on interface you want to plug metro cable(interface -> assign -> vlan).
        It looks like lan network does not need vlan tag, as it will stay behind your firewall.

          Thanks for the reply….

          So far I have configured the following:

          Wan - static - 200.105.153.162 with gateway 200.105.153.161
          Vlan with TAG ID 810 and selected the WAN interface for the Parent Interface
          Created Virtual Ip's for the network (LAN - even though this would become my public Ip's) 200.105.154.89 - 200.105.154.94

          At some point can I maintain my LAN with 192.168.0.1/23?

          Still nothing.

            After creating a vlan tag for your wan, you need to change wan interface applied.

            for example:

            from
            wan em0

            to
            wan em0_VLAN180

              Yup, that did the trick.  Everything is working now.

              Thank you for the help marcelloc, it was the wan-vlan option.
