Hi guys,
I have the below setup in my home:
LAN 1 | LAN 2 (Wifi)
|_________|
Switch | Switch
|_________|
eth1 ___ eth2
[Opnsense server]
eth0
|
WAN
I want to have LAN 1 and LAN 2 separate, so no client or wifi devices from LAN 2 can communicate with LAN 1.
Should I be putting LAN 1 and LAN 2 on different subnets or should I also be putting them on different VLANs too?
Also do I need to have a firewall rules to prevent LAN 1 and LAN 2 to communicate or would the Subnets take care of that?
Lastly, how do I prevent clients on LAN 2 from communicating with each other?
As I have some chinese devices that connect to internet on LAN 2, and I prefer it not being able to reach any other devices pr computers on LAN 1 or LAN 2.
Any advice? Thanks.
(Note: apologies for diagram, I am new and it won't let me post any links)
