Comment on Help configuring OPNsense VLANs? Tutorials I find seem to quickly become outdated.
ampersandrew@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago Hey, just wanted to chime in and say thank you. I think your guide moves a little fast for someone like me, but through omission, I was able to suss out what was wrong, I think. I don’t know if it was a default setting or if it was something I picked up without understanding it while trying to fill in the gaps of DNSmasque DHCP, but I had two DHCP Options set; one was a Set option for router[3], and the other was a Set option for dns-server[6]. The fact that you didn’t have that in your guide at all led me to try a configuration without them, and now I’ve got full connectivity on my VLAN. I’ll of course now start properly blocking access off rather than leaving everything totally permissive before opening up services to the web.

Thanks for letting me know! Glad it worked out in the end…
Yes my OPNsense guides need a bit of a re-write and more logical structure I think; I’ve received a lot of great feedback on them I need to incorporate.
Enjoy your new firewall ;)
