Dual Port WAN (6100 is not available) HELP!
-
Hello all,
I built an ASUS ProArt B550-Creator with 2x2.5G ethernet ports to use for pfSense (I know, probably overkill but Netgate 6100 is not available right now) and I added a SolorFlare 4-port SFP card. Can I turn 1-port of the SolorFlare SFP card into 1 WAN and a 2.5G ethernet port into a WAN (to = 2 WAN's) and the other 3 SolorFlare SFP ports into LAN's?
Thank you in advance,
MacWarrior

Yes, you can turn all but one ports into WAN if you wish. PfSense allows you to use/define ports as you see fit.
Only requirement is that the NIC’s are supported and has a driver in the pfSense distribution (Which may be an issue with that SFP card).
