Hi Chris,
That makes sense it being hardware issue or drivers. I don't remember
what NIC we put in that box, but it is an extra nic card. Which file do
we need to edit specifically to put the promisc command after, or rather
what directory is the file in? /etc?
Thanks for everything
Joe

pfSense doc on setting up multiple vlans on the same interface (VLAN
Trunking) and the switch is setup with trunking going to the pfSense
box (vlan1 untagged, all other vlans tagged). However, the VLANs do
not pass traffic or respond unless we are running a tcpdump or packet
capture on the VLAN interface. We have a system behind one of the
vlans we are testing with and it will is not able to hit the pfSense
box or internet, until we turn on tcpdump –i vlan2 or packet capture
on vlan2 interface.

That's a problem in the NIC hardware or driver. you can work around it
by putting the NIC into promisc.
ifconfig (interface) promisc
Put in shellcmd tag in config to survive reboot.
