Guys, I have a situation similar to what's shown here (http://imgur.com/b3Hbzd3).
I have two pfsense 2.1 boxes on my home network and two different sections of the house connected by one cable. It's not possible to run another cable without *great* effort. Each of these pf boxes have quad-port nics which support VLANs. I have three networks in play on the home network...a local lan, a DMZ, and then WAN itself. What I was hoping to do is to create VLANs for each of these (one for WAN traffic inbound, one for LAN traffic and one for the DMZ) and be able to trunk each of these VLANs across that single cable (the placement of DMZ boxes can vary at different times). Additionally, what I'd hoped to do is use non-vlan capable switches on each side. I have the Definitive Guide, but everything in it is related to using Pfsense with an external switch. I'm not sure how to about doing this in pfsense itself. What I've done at the moment is created all three vlans and then added them all to the same parent port (dm2) which is not assigned in any way within pfsense. Is this enough to "trunk" these vlans? Would what remains simply to be assigned three other physical ports on each card to the separate vlans, and then dropping the appropriate switches off these ports? Any help you can offer will be *greatly* appreciated. Thanks! _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
