General Discussion / Re: WiFi VLAN question with existing hardware

I have no knowledge of your equipment but the principle is this: all devices on a port in OPN will be by default on the same network segment.
OPN supports VLANs of course, but because they are expected to be on the same interface ie. port, then that interface needs to receive all the traffic tagged. In other words, it has to be set downstream from it as a trunk.
So if you were to send the traffic with tag 10, it should also send the rest of the traffic on the same port with another tag. You need to investigate the behaviour of that equipment. You could have problems if it sends tagged and untagged traffic. FreeBSD is not happy with it.
