Bridged networking can be used to configure your pfSense virtual machine to be a NAT firewall for other virtual machines on the same host or could even be used as an extra filter for a web server for example. Specific steps and configurations are needed to allow the pfSense router to work...
The port to which the firewall running pfSense® software will be connected must be configured as a trunk port, tagging all possible VLANs on the interface. Configure the access ports Configure ports for internal hosts as access ports on the desired VLANs, with untagged VLANs. Configure the...

Once that procedure has been completed on the primary node, perform it again on the secondary node with the appropriate IPv4 address value.After configuring the sync interface, the interface assignments list, Interfaces menu, firewall rules, and other locations should all have an entry labeled ...
The type of IPsec used by pfSense software in VTI mode. There is an IPsec interface which routes similar to other interfaces and obeys the routing table, rather than relying on policies. S2S or L2L: Short for Site-to-Site or LAN-to-LAN, distinguished from a mobile client style VPN. Per...
The external IP address of the firewall Server IPv6 Addresses: The IPv6 address used inside the tunnel for the remote endpoint. Client IPv6 Addresses: The IPv6 address used inside the tunnel for this firewall. Routed IPv6 Prefixes: The IPv6 prefixes routed to the firewall over this tunn...
Not selecting the checkboxes in this section can lead to blocking of critical addresses including the firewall interfaces themselves. This could result in being locked out of the firewall over the network! Only uncheck boxes in this section when absolutely necessary....
