Will the switch send vlan 1 tagged or untagged? If it's tagged, just create vlan1 on the pfsense box. If it's going to send it untagged (most switches will for "native" vlans), then you'll need an IP on the physical interface (I'm not entirely sure if we support that setup).

Hi, I was wondering, if I'm going to use one NIC for access to 5 VLANs through a 802.1q trunk, what is the proper way to access the native VLAN in PFSense. I am using some SRW248G4 linksys switches and they force VLAN1 to be present on all trunks, also I don't know where the setting is, but I'm pretty sure the native VLAN on these trunks is VLAN1. The native VLAN is the VLAN where the trunk port sees frames that come in untagged to the Trunk port. Since I'm using VLAN1, I want to make the Firewall's trunk port so that it sees VLANs 1,2,3,10 and 11, but I'm unsure if I should be using xl0 (the parent interface to the trunk port) as the port for VLAN1 or set up a vlan type interface for VLAN1, that way the two options are: xl0->VLAN1 vlan0->VLAN2 vlan1->VLAN3 vlan2->VLAN10 vlan3->VLAN11 and the other is vlan0->VLAN1 vlan1->VLAN2 vlan2->VLAN3 vlan3->VLAN10 vlan4->VLAN11 Do you have any tips on doing this? thanks in advance guys!
