-====== PFSense - Install pfSense - Interface Creation and Configuration ======
-===== Create VLANs =====
-We need to identify a parent interface before we can start configuring and assigning VLANs. The parent interface refers to the physical interface that will transfer the VLAN tagged traffic.
-Historically the best practice was to leave the parent interface unassigned due to undefined, unpredictable or inconsistent behaviour by some hardware, depending on the manufacturer. There was a chance that tagged traffic could be stripped of its tags and end up allocated to the parent interface introducing a security risk.
