I'm not sure how much help this will be but I've got the same switch (Dell
3024) and I'm using VLANs to provide a layer of insulation between my wired
network and wireless access point. I have my pfSense box plugged into port 1
on the switch and the wireless access point plugged into port 3.
Under the VLANs option I have all ports "Untagged" on the default VLAN (id 1).
On my second "wireless VLAN" (using id 6), I have port 1 "Tagged" and port 3
"Untagged", and all other ports are not included in the VLAN (blank).
Under "Default Port VLAN" I have all ports set to id 1 except for port 3 which
is set to id 6 (the id I'm using for the wireless VLAN).So then in pfSense I
have my LAN set to the actual physical adapter and I added a VLAN interface
using the same adapter and VLAN id 6.
I hope this helps...if you need more help understanding what's happening with
the VLAN settings in the switch I can try to help more but its kind of hard to
describe. ;)

Re: [pfSense Support] VLAN HelpNot sure if anyone had looked at the config file
but since i have not heard back I decided to start over. Did a clean install of
pfsense. Not sure if I have the dell powerconnect switch configured correctly
but get different stories. There is only 1 switch and some say I need a trunk
port some say no. Heres the Layout for now that I want to get working

Port25 (Links to pfsense box)
Port24- test port1( vlan1 - port25 tagged, port24 untagged) / Port1 test port 2
(vlan2 port25 tagged, port1 untagged)In the pfsense box set LAN to vlan1 on
rl0, Switch set port25 tagged and port 24 untagged and unable to get traffic
across. Before I was able to set LAN to vlan1 and move traffic across port 24
but then when added the 2nd vlan and setup vlan2 as tagged on port25 untagged
port1, Port1 would not get a dhcp address, Set manually still no traffic. I'm
almost at the point in thinking something is wrong with the switch passing vlan
traffic. I did update the firmware to the newest version.Never have worked with
vlan's before and I am trying to learn this so I could implement it at work by
the time our phone system gets put in place which will be based on asterisk
and therefore want to separate the clients computers that are viruses infected
from our network that also has a server on it. Currently running on 2
differenent routers to separate the 2. Thank you in advance.

config-pfSense.local-20080528142627.xmlReset pw to the factory defaultI took
out the WAN2 ip as that is a static ip. The WAN is set to dhcp for now. Let me
know if I need to do anything anything else. The lan ip I'm not worried about
as it is a test network for now and will change once in productionWed, 28 May
