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.

    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.
