Wire guard coming to pfsense 2.5. https://www.netgate.com/blog/announcing-pfsense-plus.html

WIFI 6 lite is available through EA. Anyone tried one and how is the performance?

Depending on how many ports you need. Total cost are probably under $300. https://www.servethehome.com/sfp-to-10gbase-t-adapter-module-buyers-guide/

after adding port 16 to vlan 20 on HP switch, IP address is issued by dhcp server.

i logged into the HP switch and port 1-24 are assign to VLAN 1. so i need to create a new vlan 20 on the HP switch and make the port connecting to the Unfi switch member of VLAN 1 and VLAN 20, right?

Hp switch has vlan 1 assigned to mgmt.

I acquired a new switch Unfi 16 POE. it is connected to existing switch HP 1810. APs are off the new POE switch. New guest vlan 20 was setup of pfsense with rules allowing access to internet but not lan vlan. APs are configured to routed guest vlan 20 to guest network. pfsense vm resides in...

I’ll be ordering new cables with new power strip. Thanks!

I ran into a situation where a few patch cables used to connect from patch panel to the switch was no good. Equipment attached to the wall jacks will not connect. Swapping out the cables fixed the problem. This is where it get strange. When I tested the bad cables using a laptop to the...

I'm looking to replace existing Linksys E4200 V1 next year. It will be replaced with 1 or more POE enabled AP. The plan is to get Ubiquiti PRO unit since it supported 802af. Reliable consistent throughput is the top requirement. Not peak throughput. which should I get?

What I meant by secure is traffic in the camera VLAN is restricted such that no traffic get out of there except zoneminder or blue iris access. Because it is running out of the same box as the NAS and pfsense.

i thought about adding another NIC to pfsense to create another LAN2. If I create 2 VLANs in pfsense, I will not need the NIC? Is there a way to share the storage instead of having a separate storage device in the VLAN for cameras? It will not be secure I suspect?

how would you redesign the network given there is a Procurve 1800-24G, a 8 ports POE (all 8 ports support POE), 2 wireless AP using POE and pfsense? 4 POE IP cameras. ESXi server with 4 VMs including pfsense and freenas. Currently everything not wireless tied back to the HP switch through a...

Maybe I was clear in my original post. I have a 24 port managed switch and looking to add a 8 port POE switch for IP cams and wireless AP. Should the new switch be installed in parallel to the existing HP Procurve?

A semi-managed to separate the cameras from the wireless AP. Should the new switch be connected in parallel with the exist switch? I'll will need another port in pfsense for parallel setup.
