Hello José, Please reply to the list, so that the conversation is visible to others.
Well, it seems that all of us, here on the list, are to one degree or another, struggling like you to get PF configured and working. I will do what I can to help but I am far from an expert in the adaptation of PF. The real 'gurus' would be the 'Inverse' guys who hang out here. I got my switch working (it's an HP ProCurve 2600, by the way) by following the setup recipes carefully and doing a lot of fiddling with it all. No particular expertise there. I am also working with a 'direct' installation of PF, not the VM ; that probably doesn't make much difference, except for setting up the VM's networking, I really have no idea about that, except that it must be adequately described in the ZEN manual. If you've followed the recipes there, it should be ok ... Further (to complete the disclaimer) I work on the Unix side of things and, beyond the most simple setup, really have no idea of how it's done on Windows - i.e., I have no clue as to how VLANs might be set up & configured in the Windows environment. The advantage of posting to the list, rather than personal emails, is obvious : others can then comment and fill in expertise/knowledge in the (many) areas where I am ignorant. So, please give an overview of what you are trying to do, your vlan setup, etc. to begin with. Have you read the switch's recommended configuration on page 21 of the PacketFence_Administrators' manual ? Do you intend to have VOIP devices on your network ? Please sketch it out.
