Comment on Help configuring OPNsense VLANs? Tutorials I find seem to quickly become outdated.

Looking at the live view, a ping against Google shows both my and Google’s IPv6 addresses when done from my desktop on VLAN 1, but the logs show nothing of the sort when done from my mini PC on VLAN 10, which isn’t surprising, since the error returned from the terminal is “Temporary failure in name resolution”, meaning the error is before it even knows what Google’s IP address is. I don’t know what step I might have missed for that to be the case.

If you look at my screenshot, those are the settings of my VLAN’s firewall rule, and if there’s a difference between that and the one on the LAN interface, other than the field labeled Interface Name, I don’t know what it is. The LAN interface has a firewall rule for IPv6 as well, but the Home Network Guy tutorial skipped that one, and it still reached the internet. His tutorial was for allowing internet access without reaching the other private networks, but I believe I understand the Invert setting that he checked, and I did the opposite of that specifically for this test.
