RE: [pfSense Support] VLAN trunking?

[John Cianfarani]

pfSense does do 802.1q trunking so if they device you are connecting does (should be most except some older switches) you shouldn’t have a problem.   Thanks John   From: Nathan Osborne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 08, 2006 9:19 AM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: [pfSense Support] VLAN trunking?   Hi everyone, I have a pretty basic VLAN question that I haven't been able to find the answer to:  Can pfSense do VLAN trunking?  More specifically:  I'm installing a Metro Ethernet connection with pfSense boxes on each end.  I need to tag all traffic sent over the Metro Ethernet connection with a specific VLAN id in order for the ISP's switch to handle the traffic correctly and send it on to the pfSense box on the other end.  Can pfSense do this through its VLAN configuration, or would I need a 802.1q switch in between the pfSense and the Metro E connection on each end to specify the VLAN info?  Each box has Intel cards (em), running ver 1.0.1. Thanks for any tips, Nate
