I'm trying to achieve the following:
I have Plex Media Server installed in a Jail on my FreeNAS system. I need the IP of Plex to be in a different subnet than my Freenas IP.
My setup:
My Router is a FritzBox which is connected to my Unify 24 POE Switch, to 2 ports: One is for the main network, the other is configured as the guest network and a VLAN is setup in the Switch. My FritzBox does not support VLANS so I had to go this route.
So I have two networks, 192.168.178.x (main network) and my guest network 192.168.189.x (this range gets assigned by the FritzBox automatically).
My FreeNAS is hooked up to the main network, but my TV is hooked up to the Guest network. I need my Plex Server to be part of the Guest network as well.
How can I achieve this? I tried simply changing the IP of my jail and thus my Plex plugin, and the IP does get registered in my Unify Controller; but my FritzBox still assigns the main network IP to Plesk, kind of obviously, because it is using the network interface on the FreeNAS box that is connected to the main network.
Since the port on the switch the FreeNAS is connected to is tagged with All networks, I would assume there is a way to achieve this using Vnet settings in the jail? But I lack the knowledge to properly configure this. I basically need Plex to use a virtual network interface that connects to my VLAN.
Thanks for your help!
