As per title, in Omada software how can I set one switch port to more than one VLAN ?
Also what it is not clear what is a profile when you go in Settings->Wired Networks->Profile ? I can't understand the Networks/VLANs settings...
This software is driving me crazy.
Thanks

Is not a problem, in that case the router function are from the gateway with another subnet and your ISP modem just for the internet connection.

Dear @Xstreem,

I recommend you to read the UG of the Omada SDN Controller to learn more about the wired network settings.
Refer to chapter 4.3.2 Configure LAN Networks (Page 67-75) which could help to explain what we can do in Wired Networks ->Profile.
Besides, we can also click the symbol “？” at the top right corner on the settings page to get some clues, check the configuration example to better understand how to configure VLAN.

You have to use the Omada SDN gateway like TL-R605 in order to create L2 vlan or L3 interface and propagate them on switch ports.

@Emitplink thanks for the answer, but i have a question I already have a modem/router from my isp that is a very limited devices in terms of functionalities. I was thinking to buy a TL-605R but i have doubts on how to connect it as it is not a modem. Have I to put it in middle between ISP modem/router or I have to buy a dedicated modem? I ask this because if i put in between my ISP router then I have 2 routers and I have read that this topology can have issues. I don't understand how those gateways are tipically used ?
also because it seems today that it's not common to find a modem only device, majority are modem and router together so i was wondering how should be the correct setup/topology to use such gateway?
thanks in advance

The typical use of TP-Link gateway is after your modem.
So you have to connect the WAN port of the router to your ISP modem and the LAN port to your switch.
in this case the DCHP Server it will be the gateway on the default LAN (192.168.0.0/24 but you can also change the subnet) obiuvsly your modem and gateway adresses must are different (1.1 and 0.1) and then you can also create a new LANs on different subnet on a gateway and spread it to your wireless lan with Omada SDN EAPs.
Usually is a typical deploy for SMB market not home.
I hope to have been clear

@Emitplink thanks but I still have a doubt, is it better to have a modem only device and attach the gateway or i can plug the gateway to my ISP device. My doubt is because the ISP device is not just a modem but it is a modem and router

Actually, Omada SDN gateway is not necessary in order to create L2 VLAN on switch ports.
If Omada SDN gateway is required, usually it will remind in the setting page.

Regarding this last statement, it is not required a SDN Gateway but it is required a router vlan aware right ?

The TL-R605 router can only connect to the Internet via Ethernet cable. If your ISP provides Internet access through an Ethernet cable, then you can simply replace the ISP modem/router with the new TL-R605 router and configure the Internet on the TL-R605 router instead.
But if the ISP provides the Internet through a fiber cable or DSL line that cannot be connected directly to the TL-R605 router, then you need to connect the TL-R605 router behind the ISP modem/router for Internet access. If you don't want to have two gateway routers in your network, try contacting the ISP to set the ISP modem/router as a pure modem (bridge mode).
By the way, here is a related thread about the Internet configuration with two routers for your reference.

Hope the information above is helpful. Have a nice day!
