I came across a similar issue from 2021: https://www.truenas.com/community/threads/how-to-setup-a-vlan-in-truenas-scale.97756/
That thread discusses IP being a requirement; it was clarified this is not the case. So I use the Web GUI and follow these instructions: https://www.truenas.com/docs/core/coretutorials/network/interfaces/vlancreate/
My inputs in Network > Interfaces > Add
- type VLAN
- name: vlan666
- parent_interf: enp42s0
- vlan tag: 666
- priority code: best effort (default)
- MTU 1500 (default)
>> submit "Test Changes" (then server stops responding on the network)
There seems to be no way to recover the host, unless I do a hard reset. I tried '/etc/init.d/networking restart' and it did not resolve it.
Interestingly, if I repeat the steps above and 'hard reset' (via button) after hitting "Test changes" the network interface vlan666 remains in the configuration and at next boot it seems to be working. However, truenas scale continues to be buggy and I can't add or modify network settings at all or I lose all network connectivity. The settings don't persist if I wait longer than 60 seconds after I hit "Test changes" (guess this is intended; but again - network should have been restored/automatic rolledback and that's not what its doing either)
