I want to thank Jason for his offline help. He was able to get me back up and running.

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Was my pleasure helping !

[@michaell7511]

This is really a highly valuable tutorial and please don't apologize for the length of the video. It's all in good faith and for a reason. I've scoured the internet and no one cared to talk about this. Thank you sir!

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Glad you liked it sir, if you have any questions or requests let me know :) thanks for watching !

[@ersterhernd]

Thanks for this, your instructions and explanations were concise and easy to apply. VLAN fear is gone... Cheers!

[@JasonsLabVideos]

My pleasure, thanks for watching !!

[@davidtoddhoward]

This really helped me with VLAN configuration and tagging in particular. I'm getting started with pfsense but will be looking into your videos on Untangle too. Thanks so much 👍🏼

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Glad my video was help full ! Thanks for watching Todd.

[@sukhdeepzz]

Thank You man. Solved my problem with single nic

[@rdaigre1216]

Awesome video. All the other content creators get to nerdy and want to add to much flare. This is a perfect video for beginners like me. Subscribed and I will check out any videos you make. Thanks soooooo much.

[@nigelholland24]

[@painkiller895]

Great Video !

[@pgnamal]

thank you dear.😍

[@mritengineer7902]

Clear concepts

[@JasonLeaman]

Thank you sir, more coming ! :)

[@redmapleleafwanderer]

i will go for this set up than adding usb Lan Card. it is like configuring cisco router on a stick. I like it.

[@JasonsLabVideos]

USB ethernet is very un-stable. Id rather do this method, OR install a dual / quat port nic. Thanks for watching !

[@alain-m2t]

I am testing a less disruptive cheaper firewall - a Transparent filtering firewall setup with a cheap unmanaged switch, and you can put it anywhere in the lan So for example, it can protect your pc from a commercial router/firewall that may have some vulnerabilities [every few months big name do publish vulnerabilities]

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Oh yeah ? info ?

[@philiptalbert458]

Thank you!

[@JasonsLabVideos]

My Pleasure.

[@d3mist0clesgee12]

great stuff, thanks bro

[@pgnamal]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@user-zr7kz4vs7c]

Can i use the same switch for pfsense wan and for my other local vlan like iot and guest ?

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Yes, if you set it up.

[@hornetbad]

thank you for this video man , but it's better to have 2 nic's PC ! and hello from Kuwait ✌️

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Depends on the goal, lots of people have successfully been running this type of setup for years :) Thanks for watching !

[@ygtntxrf]

Thanks and hello from Moscow "-)

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Hello back from Canada :) thanks for watching :)

[@nigelholland24]

If I was to do this vlaning like you have done here. With one port .. my isp is vodaphone U.K. and uses vlan911 for its own connection using pppoe would I just set up say re0.911 , I have pfsense up and running on a pc with 2 nic. But my new box only has one nic and no space to add a separate nic. Hope you understand. Thanks

[@JasonsLabVideos]

yup! Exactly.

[@MichaelCaputo-g5x]

have you played with a similar configuration for ubiquiti switches. The whole Tagged/Untagged/Exclude usage but using UNIFI?

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Only on the Edge Series, because doesn't need controller.

[@Mr.USDesk]

I did the same as in your video but still not able to access pfsense web interface ☹️😒😒. I have a dell sff pc with ssd, single nic and hp office connect 1820-8g switch.

[@TismoGaming]

Did you ever do a video about pfsense rules based on the info on this video? I am thinking building a network similar to this.

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Something is in the world in the next few days just waiting for new device to arrive tomorrow.

[@TismoGaming]

@@JasonsLabVideos thank you!!!

[@JasonsLabVideos]

@@TismoGaming No problemo sir !

[@johnh10000]

Interesting, I have a domestic router -> proxmox -> pfsense this works. I'm also double natting, but nothing gets out of pfsense, I have dmz-ed pfsense wan side, is that correct?

[@JasonsLabVideos]

I try to avoid all double natting if i can 100% port forwards don't work & DNS can have lots of issues.

[@jcholland1518]

My system is linking at 100mbps gigabit PC and switch why?

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Because you have a 100mb switch ?

[@jcholland1518]

both machines are gigabit HP sff 10 gen and Aruba switch PoE gigabit, is driving me crazy

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Then maybe cable issue@@jcholland1518

[@jcholland1518]

Cat 6 7 feet change like 5 of them

[@captgrant]

Not a good way to promote Pfsense using only one NIC. Consider adding for the home only with little traffic.

[@JasonsLabVideos]

People were asking for the video so I did it, it does work. But i agree 2 nic's = better performance.

[@andrewbond8187]

I appreciate your effort, but I'm following the tutorial and nothing works. I'm using D-link dgs-1210-20/me

[@JasonsLabVideos]

Are you tagging & un-tagging the proper ports & creating trunk ports on the dlink ?
