SOLVED! pfSense VM: Multiple interfaces not showing up in GUI

netengineer · Apr 9, 2010, 8:28 PM

Hi all,

Okay, just started with pfSense, but over VMWare ESXi, so using the pfSense VMWare appliance. I chose 4 interfaces in the VM, (1 WAN, 1 TRUST, 1 DMZ, 1 public). When I go to the console prompt, I can see these interfaces, em0, em1, em2, em3. However, in the admin GUI, I just see the WAN and LAN.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot - appreciate the help.

Kind regards.

Go to Interfaces -> Assign and assign the interfaces. Then they will show up in the Interfaces menu.

Hello!

Thanks for the reply, I suppose you mean that at the console prompt. I did that and it asks me for only two interfaces, em0 and em1. However, when I go to the shell and type ifconfig, it shows me the other interfaces too!

Any ideas?

Kind regards!

No, I do not mean the console. I mean in the web GUI interface.
