<DouglasGiovaniOe>
hello!
11:37
What is the best way to integrate pFsense with LTSP? We want to start tests on city hall (small tests) but, we have pfsense inside our scenario. Other question: we have 107 vlans (with different IPs) - Schools, Health Units, and more. It is possible make Ltsp run with this scenario. These vlans are the same network. For example: we can access our fileserver (10.x.x.x) from vlans normally
11:41
<alkisg>
Hi Douglas, sure, ltsp works fine with vlans
11:42
While for pfsense, you may avoid setting DHCP boot information on pfsense (but do provide IP information), and let LTSP provide it via proxydhcp
11:42
I.e. the default settings should work fine
11:43
How many ltsp servers and clients are you planning to deploy?
11:56
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
@Alkis Nice! Our pfsense has not dhcp. all devices have IP configured as vlans out sector. for example: some school that have 10.10.3.... this school the devices follow this vlan addresses. At the first time we want make some tests and to see how its works. Who know, in the future 200 pcs or more
11:58
<alkisg>
OK, you'll probably want an ltsp server for every 30-50 PCs; depending on the configuration of course, monster servers can even handle > 100
11:59
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
yes
12:00
so, will I need "n" ltsp server for each sector?
12:01
<alkisg>
No, you can have a single ltsp server with access to as many vlans as you want
12:02
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
But, The server will be MONSTER server, with many RAM right?
12:02
<alkisg>
You don't need much RAM, just quick disks and network
12:03
How many clients in the initial test? All 200 of them?
12:04
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
I think that 30-40
12:04
to start
12:07
my question is: configure ltsp-dnsmasq to works nice and right
12:20
our network 1 GB dedicated Fiber, there are pfsense Rules users
12:21
so my question stay in: how to config LTSP server to wait vlans ask for boot
12:33
<alkisg>
I don't understand what that means. Are you asking for how to configure the clients to use vlans?
12:33
How are you using vlans, do you set switch ports for them, or do you configure them client side?
12:34
If you set specific switch ports to specific vlans, then you can completely ignore vlans on the client side
12:34
The server side doesn't need anything special; as long as it can access the vlan, it will provide dhcp on it
12:35
There's no configuration needed there
12:36
If you set the switch port to "all vlans", you can then create vlan interfaces like enp2s0.2 from network-manager, create new vlan interface
12:37
Douglas Giovani Oechsler: so if a server has access to e.g. 5 vlans, it will provide dhcp to all 5 of them automatically, no configuration is needed for ltsp

alkisg: Inside Pfsense there are 107 vlans configured, right. We have network rules, users rules. Each access point (sectors) out of city hall have an IP from vlan: School 1: 10.10.2.254. Health unit 4: 10.10.23.254, school 3: 10.10.34.254 and follow this mode for 107 vlans. How can configure LTSP server to works right. How the school can be a client inside this scenario.

13:06
<alkisg>
Douglas Giovani Oechsler: assign many IPs to the ltsp server, one for each vlan
13:06
Then run ltsp dnsmasq, that's all
13:09
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
only this?? I do not believe owwwww
13:35
alkisg: only to show you how is our scenario

as Nvidea

<DouglasGiovaniOe>
alkisg: we are testing inside our building, not with different IP. The LTSP is inside proxmox, statitc IP. Here is: 10.1.1.x. To client run the service and found the LTSP, is it necessary some other dnsmasq configuration?
19:17
<alkisg>
Is the client in 10.1.1.x?
19:17
(in the same vlan)
19:17
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
yes
19:18
<alkisg>
Then you just need to run `ltsp dnsmasq`
19:18
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
yes
19:18
but I did
19:18
here have not DHCP enable
19:19
<alkisg>
You need DHCP somewhere, and proxyDHCP on ltsp, which is the default
19:19
Boot the client with ipxe.iso or ipxe.usb, and see
19:19
https://boot.ipxe.org => select any format you want
19:34
<DouglasGiovaniOe>
we can
19:37
we enable dhcp at the lan interface on pfsense (static mode) and add mac address and works

<DouglasGiovaniOe>
works
19:42
owww. I Know, I do not Like Mint, only tests, sorry
19:43
<alkisg>
You can use any distribution that uses initramfs-tools, i.e. most debian or ubuntu based ones
