Not just trying to get things to know, but I also want to know why I have to do certain things:
By adding eth1.243 as a virtual WAN interface, I’m telling Omnia to put all IP packages tagged as VLAN243 on its own “circuit” in the router.
And by bridging the virtual interface eth1.243 to one of the LAN ports, I tell Omni where that “circuit” should exit the router on the LAN side.
Does this bridged “circuit” bypass all firewall rules etc, meaning that the LAN port where VLAN243 exit also is exposed to whatever traffic is sent to me from the WAN side?
Correct – except for my non-expert terminology?
