ICX 6450 VLAN Help

Hey all,

My network currently consists of a pfsense firewall, ubiquiti 8 port switch, and an R610 AP. I've been slowly moving away from ubiquiti products and picked up an icx 6450-48p switch to replace what I have. The issue I've been having, and it's 100% because of my lack of knowledge on how to configure this switch (point goes to ubiquiti for making their GUI stupid simple), is that I'm not 100% sure how to properly setup the vlans for a single port that would connect to my AP.

I have a single LAN interface with 2 VLANs setup in pfsense (tags 43 and 63) which is plugged into port 1 of the switch. Port 48 on the switch will attach my AP w/PoE. I currently have 3 SSIDs on the AP as followed:

  • Main SSID - LAN
  • Work SSID - VLAN 43
  • Guest SSID - VLAN 63

Now when messing around with setting up the vlans and tagging the ports (dual-mode as well), I was able to get the AP to work properly over the VLANs (43 and 63), but was unsuccessful in getting the untagged LAN traffic working. Was I right in setting up dual mode? This seems like a very simple use case, but it's stumped me and I'm not sure where I need to go. Thanks in advance!

Here is a quick diagram that hopefully illustrates this issue more clearly
