====== TrueNAS Setup ======

TrueNAS setup is fairly straight forward, and well documented. However, there are a few things the documentation does not cover.

====== Initial VLAN/LAGG =====

When TrueNAS is first installed, it assumes you will be doing the configuration from the WebUI. However, you can use the cli menu for some basic things.

In my case, I had several instances where I was installing TrueNAS on a network that used DHCP, Link Aggregation (LAGG) and Virtual LAN's (VLAN's) defined on the network switch. The CLI is not exactly self explanatory on how this works.
  - Delete all interfaces (menu option 1, choose interface, then delete). This is the important step
  - Create LAGG (I think that is menu option 3?)
  - Create the VLAN on the LAGG you created (menu option 2?)
  - Set up DCHP on the VLAN you created (menu option 1, do NOT delete, just modify)
