So me and another good friend will be moving in together within the next few months, and I'm trying to figure out the best way we can get our network setup. It's Ubiquiti kit that will be used.

We both have our own servers that we'll be connecting in. We both also run our own DHCP, DNS etc servers, so we need separate VLANs.

Quick mockup of what we ideally want:

My main trouble is, I haven't done any advanced network. I can setup the two seperate VLANs fine via the switch, however... I'm struggling to get the VLANs to talk to the router/WAN. I'm assuming I need some sort of port trunking setup?

Ideally, I'd want both VLANs completely separate, but still be able to talk to the same router and get WAN access. We could use PfSense gateways, but if it's possible to setup something like the above using just the functions of the switch, I'd much prefer that.

Any help, suggestions, or links to material that covers this sort of thing would be awesome!
