Help with Three zones configuration

Networking
1

Hi All,
In the past days i follow this guide www.ipfire.org - Configuring three zones, using two NICs and one VLAN

to set up a three zones configuration with only 2 Nic. I reapet every step many times but th blue zone wont work.
This si my configuration; Red Zone for WAN; Green Zone For LAN (this works perfectly)
And the last one added BLue for a different subnet that i must use to make work a Windows Server VM

In the Zone configuration i set the Blue on the same Vlan of the green Zone

doing ip Address command i can see that the MAC Address for the blue Zone is the same on the setup screen

Am i doing something wrong?

any help is welcome

Thanks a lot

Sorry Mirco, what “won’t work” should mean?

Did you verify that this part

This tutorial assumes that you have correctly configured the switch to assign a VLAN identifier (e.g. 220) to the port intended to carry the Blue zone subnet. Furthermore it assumes that you have two physical Network cards, one connected to the WAN and carrying the RED zone and the other connected to the switch.

is configured and works as expected on the switch and counterparts?

Hi Pike, and thanks for the reply,

I assigned the blue zone subnet to the window server virtual machine and it cannot navigate. Unlike the green zone where I assigned its own subnet everything works correctly. As for the network switch, the green zone ethernet card is physically connected to Vlan 1

Don’t forget about BLUE Access.

Or it will appear to not work.

That is right. But in this special case the WUI page is easyly to recognise.
No reason to change the WUI language just for screen shots.

I disagree. If you’re asking for help having content understandable makes easier to gather information for the readers and have educated guesses on what is the issue.

What if the URL of the IPF page was shared? It could then be understood by all. Just an idea.

A screenshot shows the settings. Therefore the page URL isn’t enough.
The structure of the page is the same for all languages. This allows an ‘international reading’.

BTW: I think the discussion is going OT.

For everyone who recognizes in a blink of the eye the page/setting structure and do not have to look for into documentation and/or own installation for verify

and you’re feeding it…
