24.1 Legacy Series / Help with multiple NICS and VLANS
« on: March 14, 2024, 11:02:43 pm »
Hello, guys.
Sorry about my newbie doubts.
As you can see in above image, im running OPNsense on a Topton MiniPC with four 2.5gbps NICS. The first NIC is WAN, Second is LAN and left OPT1 and OPT2 without use. LAN is conected to a unmanaged gigabit swtich that distribute the connection to all devices on my home lab and my two Openwrt dumb APs. Two VLANs (iot and guests) are setted to this switch to use separated wifi in openwrt too.
Now im building a Unraid Server to replace my old Synology NAS and some SBCs running docker containers. In Unraid PC i putted a 2.5gbps i226V NIC because i would like to my PC (with 2.5gbps network card) could comunicate with Unraid in 2.5gbps, using OPT1 and OPT2 to connect them.
I would like to know wich is the best way of take advantage of OPT1 and OPT2 and if is possible to keep PC and Unraid in same subnet of the LAN. I know that the best option is replace the switch for 2.5gbps one, but this devices are really expensive here in Brazil so i would like to use the Topton MiniPC NICS. I know that create a bridge with LAN, OPT1 and OPT2 is an option, but this way, i couldnt use the the VLANS, because VLANS cant be setted in bridges.
Somebody can help me?
