Can you please try to describe your idea a bit better? At this time we (i) know: You have one physical Box ( or two? if one, than i guess that other posting from you is for the same box?) that you like to use it as Firewall with pfsense. This box has 2 physical interfaces (NIC's). Those NICs are Gigabit NICs and you get a 10MBit/s Wan-Connection from your Provider. Further I know your LAN-Setup has only a 100MBit/s Switch ( i guess so based on your Informations). OT (related to another post on this list): >From that other Post i figure you get/got a /28 IP-Subnet ( i hope its a real /28 and not just the count of the IP's, like adam described it earlier) You like to set up 1:1 NAT for a Part of that Subnet for the usage within your Servers to provide some Internet-Services(Protocols) to the outside of your IP-World. Where you like to put your lagg group/s there to gain which effort/functionality/state? what do you like to aggregate to get what? Failover for what? Loadbalance for what/which load ( sorry - loooool )? for beeing complete: Your VLAN-Setup depends on the local network VLAN-Setup, as mentioned earlier. And yes of course the VLAN-Stuff works since years now very good and stable. If your switches aren't managed: Don't care, just ignore it and do not use any VLAN-Setup. ( i guess no VLAN-Setup needed if the two posts are for one box, than No VLAN/No LAGG). So there are a way to much guesses, so i think we need more detailed informations from you?
