        Could you be more specific what you are talking about?
        If you are talking about a filtering Bridge then yes.

          Yes, "…..... FreeBSD and Linux both combine a bridging mode with their packet filter to become a Stealth Firewall"

              pfSense is a product based on top of FreeBSD, not an application.

              (In other words, no)
