Video Description
After configuring OPNsense in the Part 2 video, it is time to configure the network switch! In this video, I will be using a Cisco Small Business switch provided to me by Jason's Lab (@JasonsLabVideos). The LAGG and VLAN configuration must be completed on the managed switch to coincide with the OPNsense configuration. Once the switch configuration is complete, I will do a simple demonstration to determine proper configuration.
