Hey, I was wondering if I can create a Guest network w/ the Purple on an Eero network. What would I need to consider if setting up a network where the Purple manages it and Eero mainly provides the Wifi signal

  You must use eero's internally NAT'd guest network.  You cannot create a separate SSID otherwise.  It works fine in eero's bridge mode, but you will have no visibility or control from the Firewalla.

  that's a pity I wanted to control the guest network via FW. Would a VLAN achieve this?

  eero does not support vlan tagging necessary for that.
