Firmware Version: 1.27

Dear community,

 

recently I tried to configure VLAN's on both of my SX3008F switches with the Omada Software controller.
I have following setup:
 

Switch1 Port1: WAN Modem

Switch1 Port2: Windows PC

Switch1 Port4: Wifi Access Point
Switch1 Port6: Omada Controller
Switch1 Port7&8: LAG1 to Switch2

 

Switch2 Port1: Proxmox VE WAN Device for OPNsense

Switch2 Port3: Proxmox VE LAN Device

Switch2 Port5: NAS
Switch2 Port 7&8: LAG1 to Switch1

 

I want to have Switch1 Port1 (WAN Modem) to route trought the Switches to Switch2 Port1 (OPNsense in Proxmox VE)

Second all other devices in a different VLAN.

I configured a VLAN ID 254 under "settings / LAN as VLAN.
Then I created a switch profile named it "WAN", chose the VLAN 254 (WAN) as native network and left everything else as default.

But I think I don't understand how that switch profile thing works in the Omada environment. I had a Netgear switch before and it was much easier to configure a VLAN on a port.

Please can someone explain to me how to create the correct switch profile to make it work.

Many thanks in advance.

kind regards,
Joerg

You need to set the Input port for the WAN (switch 1 port 1) as Native vlan 254

 

Add VLAN 254 as tagged on the trunk between the two switches, and then another native untagged vlan 254 on the output port going to the end device on the other switch

Hello @GRL 

 

that's what I tried. Unfortunately OPNsense didn't got an IP on the WAN interface.

Instead, i found out now, that the VLAN itself got the IP from the modem. WTF? 


cellar#show interface vlan 254
VLAN254 is up, line protocol is up
  Hardware is CPU Interface, address is d8:44:89:ab:11:8f
  ip is 87.73.105.xxx/22

 

Now I put a static IP on that VLAN, but still no IP in OPNsense WAN Interface.
So I put a cheap router in front of the modem and put the router instead of the modem into VLAN 254 and put the VLAN back to dhcp in the switches and boom, OPNsense got an IP.
I find that way to complicated to configure a VLAN. And why does the VLAN itself need an IP Adress in the switch? I only get one IP from from the modem...

 

Thanks for getting into it.


Kind regards

Joerg
