General Discussion / Vlan01: untagged or tagged
« on: October 11, 2023, 12:48:08 am »
When I first ventured into vlans, obviously I didn't know much and was experimenting (I still am very new). I just created vlan03 for my iot stuff. It's worked fine so far. My question is, the switch and my WiFi AP expects vlan01 to be tagged as such but In opnsense, there is no vlan01. The port on the switch to opnsense just tags untagged incoming as vlan01, IE opnsense is on a hybrid access/trunk port. Two questions:
1. Should I change this. Is there any good reason to do so?
2. Regardless of the above answer, what's the best way if I wanted to anyway? The vlan01 IP addresses are already assigned to the parent interface, so I can't just put them on vlan01 and turn it on, so I'd have to connect via serial and then disable the DHCP on parent then turn on vlan01? Or assign another temp address etc.
3. Is there an easy way to copy all nat and firewall rules over from parent?
