  • Great intro to pfsense, past present and future stuff.

    Can't wait for 2.0/relayd!

  • Great presentation. Glad these are posted for those of us who cant make it to the conferences. We use a virtual instance of pfSense running on ESXi for our guest wireless for the captive portal feature. We are building out a rack in a colo within the next couple of months and I hope to put a pfSense box on the edge. Keep up the good work.

  • @dpuckett OMG...why didn't I think of using this software in a virtual environment. Sometimes I feel stupid for not thinking of these things. Here I've got some 333Mhz dinosaur consuming energy for nothing. I'm new in IT and still learning I guess. :) How do you manage the physical ethernet ports along with the other OSs in VMware? Do you just have a bunch of NICs?

  • @Pepsifx357 On the physical server, make one of the physical ethernet ports the External/WAN interface and make another physical ethernet port the Internal/LAN/NAT interface. On VMWare, I added a second software switch to the system and add the LAN interface to the second switch and bound all the internal VMs to this switch and then setup NAT on pfSense for these hosts.

  • @wwp98072 Thanks, will do!

  • @Pepsifx357 wwp98072 is right. I just have a dedicated physical port on the host directly connected to the Internet and one of the other ports configured for for VLAN trunking for our Guest VLAN from the Access Point.
