Title: LAN with different subnet and different DHCP Post by: drenda81 on Friday 22 May 2015, 07:14:42 am I'm trying to configure efw community in my network where I've 3 managed
switch and 8 VLANs. Every VLAN has a different subnet and should have a different DHCP. Seems this configuration is not manageable in efw because there are only 3 zones (only a zone permit to define a subnet). Why this choise. In pfsense this configuration is possibile, why in endian is not? Which is the correct way to manage 8 VLAN with endian? Thanks -- Daniele Title: Re: LAN with different subnet and different DHCP Post by: mrkroket on Saturday 23 May 2015, 12:12:47 am There is not correct way to manage more than 3 zones on endian.
It's a pity, but you must group the VLAN's on these 3 zones, and if you need DHCP server on endian you must manually tweak the dhcp.conf.tmpl template. Also check http://help.endian.com/entries/25391848-How-to-split-a-zone-in-sub-zones for correctly separating traffic between VLAN's. If you don't do that you can have a nice packet storm (I made only by connecting 2 endians on the same VLAN's). Title: Re: LAN with different subnet and different DHCP Post by: drenda81 on Saturday 23 May 2015, 12:18:27 am Thanks for your reply. And renouncing to dhcp server, I can't manage 8 vlans with different subnet defining only rules in the firewall to route traffic?
So I group all vlan in GREEN zone and then I route the traffic on subnet based. You spoke about "packet storm". Do you mean that doing this the firewall could became a bottleneck? Thanks |
