Step by step configuring WAN with Vlan via OPNsense GUI
----------------------------------------------------------------

Assumptions:
Default install of OPNsense, Wizard was not run
Your WAN physical interface = re0
Your ISP Vlan Tag = 2

1. Interfaces – Other Types – VLAN = [ Iface: re0, Tag: 2, PCP: 0 ]. Create new interface re0_vlan2
2. Interfaces – Point-to-Point – Devices = [ Interface: pppoe0, Iface(s): re0_vlan2 ]. Create new interface pppoe0

Fill in ISP login/password here.

3. Interfaces – Assignments – WAN = pppoe0
4. Interfaces – WAN – IPv4 Configuration Type = PPPoE
5. Checks:
- in Interfaces – WAN, that login/password been populated from pppoe0.
- Lobby - Dashboard - Interfaces - WAN has IP address (public IP).
- Lobby - Dashboard - Gateways - WAN_PPPOE has IP address (10.x).
- Interfaces – Point-to-Point – Log file

DoT DNS using Unbound (exists in default install)
-------------------------------------------------------

6. in Services - Unbound - General - Custom Options, paste:
      server:
          tls-cert-bundle: /etc/ssl/cert.pem
      forward-zone:
          name: "."
          forward-tls-upstream: yes
          # Quad9
          forward-addr: 9.9.9.9@853#dns.quad9.net
          forward-addr: 149.112.112.112@853#dns.quad9.net
7. in System - Settings - General - DNS servers:
- enter as first entry: 127.0.0.0, None
8. System - Settings - General - DNS server options - Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP = uncheck


Enjoy :)



TPG specific notes:
login/password were different from my previous ADSL account: <oldlogin>@tpg.com.au / NoPassword (yes, 'NoPassword').

Hi,

hopefully you are able to help me out here.

I also have a PPPOE connection with vlan tag.
I've followed your tutorial several times now but I can't seem to get it to work.

can you tell me how you have set up the gateway as my gateway stays empty.
also I have a fixed ip from my ISP now sure how to set this up.

hope you can help me out here.

Thnx in advance!

Ok, I got it! Apperantly opnsense makes an assumption which NIC is being used.
After switching cables everything works accordingly.

Thank you for your solution provided
