Hello,
We need to set up a VLANS in the office with the PA-500 but we don't like to change our address. It's possible to configure a VLANs with MAC address or protocole with PA-500?
Thanks

Could You be more specific?

Hi there
To enable vlan tags you should not be required to change IP addressing
assuming you start off with a simple L3 interface (let's say eth1/2) with ip range 192.168.0.0/24 which you want to move into vlan 10 it would suffice to take the following steps to make it work:
repeat the above process for all the vlans you want to split off, tagging each subinterface with the vlan you want to use

Hi,
Thank you very much for your response !
@_slv_ Yes, I read this document and want to use the mac address for not change the ip address range in our office.
@reaper Yes , I do this for the IT departments . I follow all this steps and I put the employees in the VLAN10. But for the HR departments I want to use other vlan 11 without change the IP address. It's possible to do the segmentation of the network with the mac address or the protocol ?? . Can you please help me for this
Thank you very much for your cooperation

ok, so all your users are located in the same subnet
on a larger platform you could enable Virtual Systems and have the 2 vlans on a different virtual instance. on a PA-500 unfortunately that is not supported, so you will probably need to segment your subnet into smaller parts to have the least impact.
we can't split that up based on MAC or protocol

Can you explain more what is your goal?
You can allow or block traffic based on source ip or source user.
Palo can't throw packets into diferent vlans based on soure mac address.

Hi,
@reaper Thank you very much for your response !
@Raido_Rattameister : the Goal is to do the segmentation of the network without change the ip address range . I want for exemple to do the segmentation based on MAC address of protocole .

Hi,
Its possible: put departments in different vlan's and use vwires between the vlan's to connect them.

If you really want then you can configure firewall on Layer 2 also with Palo. Then it works as a switch. You have Layer 2 zones and you can create rules between them. All machines can be in same ip range.
In this case no need to change ip addresses.
You never design this from scratch but if environment is place then it can be used as workaround.
Throwing out google search link so you can check if this is something you need.

hi,
@Gertjan-HFG can you please explain more what i have doing ?
@Raido_Rattameister the only solution that i find it is to to the segmentation with ip address with subinterfaces and add the necessary tags for the vlan and in the switch i should configure a trunk port . I should in this way change the ip address range 😞
I don't know what should i do to realease my goal ?. how should i use PA-500 in L3 and L2 mode to do the segmentation without changing the ip address range ??
Thank you for all your helps
