VlanXX shows up as vlan01 ?

[Fmslick]

Hello all (longtime listener first-time caller),

I am using:
Type: opnsense   
Version: 22.7_4   
Architecture: amd64   
Flavour: OpenSSL      
Mirror: https://pkg.opnsense.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64/22.7   
Repositories: OPNsense

When I go to make a new Vlan (vlan88) it will show up as vlan01 or next one will be vlan02 if I try like vlan89 or any number I try it just goes to the next number (vlan02). This didn't start until the other day after I did a update. Is there way to fix this or would need to backup my .config and just reinstall?

Let me know what info you need if we are going to take this down a rabbit hole!  8)


Thanks

That's intentional. You can put the VLAN tag in the description field. The interface names will be strictly increasing.

Intentional change starting at 22.1.

 :o Alright, so it will show as vlan0 with the tag of  88 (vlan0:88) ?

No , that's not the vlan tag, it's the first vlan you created, followed by the second (vlan02) which could be tagged with vlan2000.
Yes, it's very weird. But that's opnsense for you.

Im also a bit confused here. All my VLANs previously created under Interfaces – Other Types – VLAN are shown under Devices like:

Code Select Expand


lagg0_VLAN10
lagg0_VLAN15
lagg0_VLAN18
etc.


New created VLAN with 22.7.2 is shown under Device just as vlan01

Read the message from @franco I linked above. Previously created Vlans keep the old naming convention (for now per him) new vlans get the new naming convention.

I re-setup all my Vlan's so they are using the new settings or ways, my switch's are set to the tag (88) I want and not to vlan5 an it seem to be working with out issue.
