      So uh I stupidly locked my self out of an SG-2100 after enabling 802.1q, can I disable it on console? Did it remotely, so uh I'm at an airport hoping I can revert it and not start from scratch when I get there physically :(

        Yes, you can roll back the last change using the console menu option 15:
        https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/config/console-menu.html#restore-recent-configuration

        You may need to reboot to apply that switch setting.

        Or you could edit the config and reboot.

        Or you could set the switch back to port vlan mode manually.

        Or you could add a rule to allow access from the WAN side using the easyrule script then disbale it again once you have access:
