General Discussion / Re: Second LAN OPT2 no WAN access
November 17, 2024, 02:47:37 PM
That was it, I think, I can now ping the outside world by IP. Name resolving seems to be not working but that's probably a configuration issue somewhere else. This is a Windows 2000 Domain for all my XP and earlier machines. Hence the reason they need to be separated from my modern stuff. Next up is kicking off all the IoT stuff on to its own LAN.

General Discussion / Second LAN OPT2 no WAN access
November 16, 2024, 10:15:53 PM
I am running on a mini PC with four NICs, one is WAN, the second is my main LAN, and the other two have gone unused. This has been running flawlessly for quite a few years now and I am very happy with OPNSense. The time has come to expand things and I want to create a second, totally separate LAN using one of the extra ports. I created the OPT2 interface and managed to get DHCP working with it, problem is I can't seem to access the internet from this LAN.

All the guides and posts I keep coming up with are about bridging LANs or traversing ports. This is not what I want, I want the LANs to be totally separate and no co-mingling of traffic. What am I missing here, seems like it should be simple, yet I can't quite get it to work.
