How to allow VLANS

This is what I do for my own LAN :

  • Create VLAN Interfaces
    Please note you should NOT configure a gateway on those!
    Just the IP address and Subnet is enough :wink:
  • Make sure all running services are bound only to the main non-VLAN Interface to avoid exposure of those in the wrong VLAN's.
  • Add the additional VLAN interfaces to FTLDNS a.k.a. DNSmasq like so :

/etc/dnsmasq.d$ cat 101-my.settings interface=eth0.10 interface=eth0.100 interface=eth0.254

And then restart FTLDNS ofcourse to make sure this actually works :slight_smile:

Any Static IP using Clients or DHCP Server configuration would obviously need some adjusting too on the VLAN's you are using!
