Comment on My reason for wanting HomeAssistant and a locked down VLAN...
flux@lemmy.ml 1 week agoYou configure vlans per physical port, so in a properly implemented system your attack won’t be possible. When the packet comes to the switch the vlan tag is added to it according to the configuration for the port it was received from.
Or are you talking about mac-vlans?

Ok maybe I don’t fully understand yet. Let’s say an access point has 3 SSIDs, lan, guest and iot each client on each SSID gets a vlan tag accordingly. So it’s only connected to a single physical port, i think that’s what confused me. But SSIDs are interfaces just like an physical port afaik so your analogy still stands. The security here is the WiFi password anything that connects to LAN gets a LAN vlan tag. but it’s not like anything that connects to any of the SSIDs can get the DHCP lease of some random device on any vlan cuz it got tagged before. Or am I missing something?
