      I have created several vlans on my pfsense box running latest version. The default vlan1 routes traffic to the internet just fine. The vlan clients are able to obtain a dhcp ip address but not access the internet. I have created two firewall rules based on the LAN rules but that didn't work. What rules need to be created to allow these vlans to access the internet yet not be able to reach each other?

        On each VLAN interface:

        Pass the traffic clients need (DNS, ping to certain interfaces)
        Reject traffic you don't want passed (other VLANs/interfaces, This firewall)
        Pass everything else (the internet)

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!
