FreeNAS-11.3-U1
I want to run an instance of Plex server in a Jail, and need this to be attached (only) to a VLAN separate to anything else the box is connected to. I already successfuly use Vlans on this box for other services running on the main OS instance'. I have the new VLAN already configured and tested OK by running up a new main OS interface to check connectivity.
I created a bridge interface instance 'bridge0', with the new VLAN as the only member.
I created and saved a new Jail, using VNET, with ipv4 interface 'vnet0:bridge0', and the desired IP/Mask/Gateway. So far all good.
However, when I attempt to start the Jail, the GUI reports:
The log says only:
The FreeNAS documentation does not seem to address this sort of configuration. Is there a HOWTO or something else I can refer to for working with VNET, and Jails with VLAN's ?
Google suggests lots of folk have in the past have had trouble with my sort of configuration, but of course a lot has changed in FreeNAS so possibly much of what I've found is irrelevant.
It'd be good to hear from anyone if this is even a supported configuration, and if so how to achieve it !
