      I I have figured out how to get all my equipment passing vlan info along just fine when the switched are all connected to each other and a single uplink to the pfsense box. I am now running into an issue where I am just confused, maybe its because I have been thinking about it too long.

      Here's my config.

      PFSense with 6 ports em0-em5
      em0 - wan
      em1 - lan 192.168.2.1/24

      OPT1 - VLAN300 on em2 192.168.3.1/24
      OPT2 - VLAN400 on em2 192.168.4.1/24

      Theoretically, how would I go about duplicating this (Opt1 and Opt2) on another physical interface? Do I need to created another virtual interface or is there something similar to tagged/untagged like on the switches?

      Attachment is desired functionality sketch. Please excuse my ignorance of pfsense. I have only been playing since yesterday.

        Are those VLANs truly the same VLAN, or just the same ID on different, isolated switches?
