How to setup VLANs within FreeNAS 11.3

I still noticed that internet connectivity does not work in the jails that are on different VLANs then the host when using static addresses. DHCP is a work around for this issue for now at least. I am able to ping devices when using a static address between VLANs, at least for devices that I have allowed to communicate. Getting closer, at this point I may need to still create a ticket, but I will continue to troubleshoot.
I am curious if there is anyone else that can replicate this issue also.

Is the gateway set up appropriately for the VLAN jails?
I have the DNS/gateway in my global config for the server and also have the default router ip set in the jail itself. Unless I need to set something in the bridge/vlan interface? I had this same setup working on 11.3 though.

Your freeNAS box can have only one default gateway and one set of DNS servers. It's the jails themselves that need a manually set default GW and DNS server if you set the IP address manually. Naturally at least the default GW is different for each VLAN.
Yeah this is the way I have it setup, each jail has their respective gateway set depending on the vlan.

Abd your jails use vnet and you explicitly attached them to their VLAN?
That is correct, I have Vlan and bridge interfaces setup and each jail is connected to their respective bridge with the correct vlan interface. This all worked on 11.3, it wasn't until Truenas 12.0RC that it stopped.

Which system is the default gateway in your VLANs and how is it connected to your infrastructure?
The default gateway is set to 10.10.10.1 under global config in Truenas, which is the default gateway for VLAN10. I have my switch port on the Cisco SG500 switch set to "Trunk" and all VLans traversing that physical interface are tagged going to Truenas. The Static IP for my Truenas server is defined under VLAN10 in network interfaces.
I have attached my network config there are 3 VLANs and 3 bridges, certain jails are assigned to certain bridge interfaces depending on which VLAN is required.
I have also noticed that I need to set the "vnet_default_interface" under each jail to "none" or I do not get any network connectivity.

What is the default gateway's address for the jails in VLAN 20 and which device is it?

Which device has got an IP address of 10.10.20.1? And is that device capable of routing?
That is default gateway set by my pfsense firewall for VLAN20.
The pfsense firewall handles the VLANs, my Cisco switch is just setup as Layer 2.

Can you ping that pfsense from the jail?
No I cannot, unless I use DHCP for that jail.

Now that is weird. I am at the end of my wits via the forum. I would need to get my hands on your devices and do some packet traces. Finding someone near who can do that is probably your best bet.
This is why I suspect this is a bug in Truenas 12.0RC, since it worked perfectly fine with static addresses on Freenas 11.3.
i am doing something wrong.
bridge0 says vlan20 and vlan30 are members
i try create bridge20 and bridge30, the first attempt to save fails with device busy.
second attempt saves, in bridge20 is in the list, but then disappears.
** update **
reversed out these instructions
rebooted and the bridges were able to be created.
