Going to be setting up a unifi and pfsense integrated network.
My HW gear is:
- pfsense 7100 router
- cloudkey gen2
- 24 port POE switch
- 4 APs
I am going to have the pfsense router’s downstream ports connect to the switch.
As part of the project I need to set up two VLAN networks (one for IOT and one for guest) in addition to the LAN. Looks like there are good instructions to be found at the videos:
- UnIFi & pfsense Deployment, Setup and Planning with WiFi, VLAN & Guest Network
- How To Setup VLANs With pfsense & UniFi 2022
My last question before I give this a whirl is when I am setting up the VLANs do I make the parent interface all the same one and then cable one ethernet from LAN of the pfsense to the unifi switch? Or should I give a different parent interface for each VLAN and have the pfsense router port corresponding to each interface connect to the switch separately?
