My #FreeBSD jail needed a second interface in the storage #VLAN.
I like to use #DHCP for central configuration, but this extra interface should not set the hostname, routing, etc.

Ended up adding a kind of dummy entry to the dhclient.conf which only gets the IP address AFAIS.

interface "epair13b" {
send host-name "myhost-vlan1";
request subnet-mask;
}

Tips for a better way to do this?

I've been learning more about #networking this weekend with my #ubiquiti #unifi devices. #VLAN almost makes sense 🥴

I'm still struggling with how to put my #proxmox server onto one VLAN along with a few VMs that will operate on the internal network, and put the other VMs on a separate VLAN. I have two NICs so I can segregate the traffic at the physical switch.

It seems like I need to install some software on ProxMox to have a virtual switch.

But I keep getting tripped up on the Unifi side.
