Can you advise if this is the best way to separate LAN for small business / restaurant?
I would like to use the 3 physical Ethernet interfaces as follows:

Trying to do 3 different networks / interfaces on the T30 firewall:
1) 10.1.1.1/24 - trusted | office WIFI access pints
2) 10.1.10.1/24 - trusted | POS system on ethernet switch
3) 10.1.20.1/24 - trusted | SONOS music system

Don't really see the difference from trusted / optional - can you help elaborate on the modes? Also I noticed I can ping cross network. If I don't want that and just have the network separate for internet access only and not talk to other network - how to do it?

You need to configure VLANs. Good on you for looking into this. Public L2 networks are a big nono.

Public L2? I'm concerned about private LAN trusted networks.
Is it not possible to setup each port with different network as indicated?

Good tutorial for VLAN setup in my case ?

This is what im trying to accomplish:

Create separation between 3 sections of the network with T30 wachguard:

Trying to do 3 different networks / interfaces:
0 - external WAN
1 - 10.1.1.1/24 - trusted | office WIFI access points
2 - 10.1.10.1/24 - trusted | POS system on ethernet switch
3 - 10.1.20.1/24 - trusted | SONOS music system

Is this feasible to do? If not do I need to setup VLAN on the physical interface? I want different physical interfaces linked to 24-p managed switch that will handle traffic VLAN.

Is it impossible to do as I initially wanted with different network on different interface?
