      Hi im very new to pfsense and im trying thi setup to work, i want to virtualize a pfsense system to use as a main router in my home, the setup would be like this:

      ISP –> windows machine with dual NIC -- > pfsense virtualbox --> switch --> windows again and my other hosts

      I want to make clear that i want the internet signal flow to pass first to pfsense and then to windows, i have succeeded on configuring wan and a local loopback so my windows machine uses the signal from the pfsense and not from the nic itself, but i cant get it to work so it uses the second nic as a LAN in the same subnet as the loopback interface so i can share same network with all my devices, can you help me please?
