I have 21.1.2-amd64 in the ProtectLi minicomputer.
For about 1 year now I've been running OPNsense, with a single LAN, connect to my ISP (Comcast). It worked just fine. However; my homebuilt security system is NOT working how I anticipated (or wanted) so I decided to replace my homebuilt system with commercial, cloud-based hardware. To accommodate the new hardware, I wanted to add a new LAN (subnet?) to my OPNsense router.
My goal was to isolate these new IoT devices (on the new LAN) from the hard-wired and WiFi desktops, laptops, and cell phones on my 'home' network. To that end: I added em2, gave em2 a static address, and enabled em2. After a LOT of fiddling around, I have managed to get hardware on em2 to communicate within the em2 LAN, but I have NO internet connectivity!
WHAT AM I MISSING?!?
I checked all of the 'pre-configured' firewall rules for my WAN/Home networks, tried to copy/paste seemingly appropriate rules to my IoT network, but none of them worked! I also tried adding rules from FAQs, that I found on the interwebz, for both pfSense and OPNsense, but none of THEM worked either...
Help?!?
