The final part of the setting up a full network using OPNsense series-- the wireless access point configuration!
Setting up the wireless AP is likely the easiest part of the configuration since a majority of the configuration has been completed in prior videos. Both OPNsense and the network switch need to have VLANs configured properly before VLANs can be used with the AP.
I will be using the Grandstream 7660 as my example since it supports VLANs. I found it to be very simple to configure.
Shout out to Jason's Lab (https://www.youtube.com/@JasonsLabVideos) for providing me with the Grandstream as well as the Cisco switch! It helped me tremendously to create this video series!
