Setting up Omada Network - Controller > Switch > Router > PfSense Firewall
I was hoping I could have the physical connections like in the table below and apply some network segregation rules at the Omada Router and apply the main firewall traffic rules at the PfSense.
When I have multiple connections from the Switch to the Router, I see that only one port shows as an uplink on the switch. The other ports usually log errors saying they are blocked.
With the switch, is there only one then one uplink port allowed?
Is there a way to have multiple connections where each connection support a Network?
Connecting the Router with multiple connections to the PfSense device does not cause errors. It registers that each one is WAN and has an outgoing connection.
The overall setup is:
AP/Controller>Switch>Router>PfSense>Modem
WLAN | LAN Network | LAN interface | WAN interface for LAN | Out to Firewall |
---|---|---|---|---|
Guest | Guest | Switch port 17 | Router Port 8 | Router Port 4 |
IoT | IoT | Switch port 19 | Router Port 9 | Router Port 5 |
IP Cameras | IP Cameras | Switch port 21 | Router Port 10 | Router Port 6 |
Home Lab | Home Lab | Switch Port 23 | Router Port 11 | Router Port 7 |
Secure | Secure | Switch port 25 (SPF+) | Router Port 2 | Router Port SFP+ WAN1 |
Work from Home | Work from Home | Switch port 26 (SPF+) | Router Port 3 | Router Port SFP+ WAN1 |
