This was fine for my goals then, as I didn't have one router route everything. This worked fine and served my needs at the time, but I want to do this better now.Īs someone in the YouTube comments of my video pointed out too, I too had not at all done anything in pfSense's VLAN section. Using my D-Link "smart managed" router's VLAN functionality I had effectively split the network in two, with two fully separate routers handling either side. This is part one of my homelab re-organization project.

Since I was very new to both this and pfSense I was struggling to figure things out in a timely fashion, and ended up going with a basic pfSense setup for my homelab and office side of the network, relying on my internet-provider-provided router for the rest of the home network. Ever since first setting up my home's network I wanted to try using OPNsense.
