Restricted traffic on VLAN interface

Hi,

I have created two vlan interfaces on a physical interface, using the guide. The first VLAN interface I created works really well. However, the second VLAN interface I added is experiencing odd behavior. Traffic is passing through from the LAN side - I can ping/trace route/and open a Google page. But if I try and pull any larger amounts of data - speedcheck, Azure Portal login page, the connections time out (even thought the pings stay constant).

Any suggestions here? Both VLANs have the same (Best, 0) priority settings. I've tried elevating this to but it doesn't make a difference.

Cheers,
Matt



You did neither tell your configuration nor the topology, so this is only guesswork:

1. Mixing up tagged and untagged (V)LANs on FreeBSD/OpnSense does not work too well. You should have either one or the other.
2. Some hardware does mix up VLANs as well, especially cheap switches. For example, if you cascade switches, an edge switch might short-circuit both VLANs, which can lead to all kinds of problems.
Intel N100, 4* I226-V, 2* 82559, 16 GByte, 500 GByte NVME, Leox LXT-010H-D

I know, I deliberately didn't go into details in case someone shouted out something "MTU size". Both VLANs were tagged by the way.

Anyway I've decide  to move this to a physical interface and see how that goes.
