PfSense Multiple NIC Cards
-
Hey guys,
I've got a pfSense server which is serving my needs, I've got 5 NIC Cards (Only 2 Assigned)
1x WAN (PPPoE)
1x LANI need to assign anothed NIC to utilize the same network as "LAN" nic card - and access the DHCP server on "LAN".
I can do this by "Interface Groups" ?
Would appreiate any input, thx
Regards

A 'bridge' is what you are looking for…

Thanks mhab12,
So new setup will consist of:
1: WAN
2: LAN
3: LAN2Go to Bridge and "Bridge" LAN + LAN2… connections going through LAN2 - they can access the DHCP Server on LAN, right?
-
Your non -LAN interface(s) will need firewall rule(s) to allow DHCP traffic.
Are you using pfSense 1.2.3 or 2.0? Configuration details will be a bit different.
-
running on 2.0

See http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,34314.msg177932.html#msg177932 for how I configured a bridge on pfSense 2.0 between a wired LAN and a wireless LAN.
