 ====== PFSense - Install pfSense - Create Interfaces ======
+<WRAP info>
+The approach taken here is to match the third octet of each interface IP address to the corresponding VLAN tag.
+This just makes it easier to remember:
+  * VLAN tag **50** => 192.168.**50**.0.
+  * VLAN tag **70** => 192.168.**70**.0.
+  * VLAN tag **99** => 192.168.**99**.0.
+</WRAP>
+----
+===== Create an interface per VLAN =====
+Navigate to **Interfaces -> Assignments**.
+  * Select **VLAN50 on em1** from the available network ports.
+  * Click **Add**.
+  * Select **VLAN70 on em1** from the available network ports.
+  * Click **Add**.
+  * Select **VLAN99 on em1** from the available network ports.
+  * Click **Add**.
+<WRAP info>
+**NOTE:**  This should show the following Interfaces:
+  * OPT1
+  * OPT2
+  * OPT3
+</WRAP>

+===== Configure interface IP addresses =====
+Navigate to **Interfaces -> Assignments**.
+  * Click on the label next to **VLAN50**, its likely to be **OPT1**.
+Configure this interface as follows:
+In **General Configuration**:
+  * Enable:  **Checked**.
+  * Description:  **CLEAR**.
+  * IPv4 Configuration Type:  **Static IPv4**.
+  * IPv6 Configuration Type:  **None**.
+  * MAC Address:  **<default>**.
+  * MTU:  **None**.
+  * MSS:  **None**.
+  * Speed and Duplex:  **Default (no preference, typically autoselect)**.
+In **Static IPv4 configuration**:
+  * IPv4 Address:  **192.168.50.1/24**.
+  * IPv4 Upstream gateway:  **None**.
+In **Reserved Networks**:
+  * Block private networks and loopback addresses:  **Not Checked**.
+  * Block bogon networks:  **Not Checked**.
+Click **Save** and Apply changes.

+  * Click on the label next to **VLAN99**, its likely to be **OPT3**.
+Configure this interface as follows:
+In **General Configuration**:
+  * Enable:  **Checked**.
+  * Description:  **GUEST**.
+  * IPv4 Configuration Type:  **Static IPv4**.
+  * IPv6 Configuration Type:  **None**.
+  * MAC Address:  **<default>**.

+  * Speed and Duplex:  **Default (no preference, typically autoselect)**.
+In **Static IPv4 configuration**:
+  * IPv4 Address:  **192.168.99.1/24**.  Alternatively use a completely different IP range for Guests such as **172.16.0.1/24**.
+  * IPv4 Upstream gateway:  **None**.
+In **Reserved Networks**:
+  * Block private networks and loopback addresses:  **Not Checked**.
+  * Block bogon networks:  **Not Checked**.
