Wouldn't that introduce double Nat problem? Also are vlan subject double Nat? All examples of the vlan use seems to introduce vlan subnet and dhcp so I would assume that double Nat also applies.. However I believe vlan is on different layer so maybe not.. I clearly don't quite get it yet.. BTW looking at my gear it should be possible to set up vlans.. Guest network vlan seems straight forward as no other devices should be visible to guests and double Nat should not be concern. However for squeezebox vlan I would somehow need to make NAS member of SB vlan and main vlan (or non vlan traffic) Ideally if only lms docker container is part of both (for extra security) - perhaps this can be done with macvlan. BTW I have found someones hack for NAS becoming member of few vlans, however it apparently does not work with vswitch which I'm using for vDSM There is still topic of sorting mesh network to work with vlan I'm not sure about (maybe no big deal if it's just bridged to tagged lan port ) Anyway more I learn more complicated it all is. 3x Squeezebox Touch, 4x Squeezebox Radio, Squeezelite (RPi 3B with HiFiBerry DAC+Pro on OSMC), Material Skin Apk, Squeeze Commander, Logitech Media Server Version: 8.2.0 with Material Skin (Docker in DS218+) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jaca's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58187 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115017 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
