Another successful OpenBSD setup
I've been buying these little boxes from AliExpress for years to use as firewalls and routers. My oldest one is almost 9 years old now! OpenBSD installs just fine. Just a BIOS tweak to always boot up after power is restored.
Doesn’t look like it but if I set up VLANs unless an user is on the correct VLAN they can’t access the web interface. And the only way for them to get access is to get physical access and plug a device into the correct port.
VLAN hopping can be done on outdated firmware if one is somewhat determined, AFAIK
From the switch? I thought the routing was done at the router level?
If the switch is managed (I'm assuming it supports L3 functions which means inter-VLAN routing), then it's possible to hop VLANs on the switch.
My Netgear switch doesn’t support Level 3 routing. It only supports basic VLAN functions.
