    We are thinking of moving from Untangle (Free) to Pfsense.  Basically, all I want Pfsense to do initially is filter web traffic content (ie. Facebook, Port etc).  I don't want it to do any routing, firewall-ing, or anything like that.

    Is this possible?

    Would this be ran in a bridge mode for that type of setup?

    Thanks!

      And how do you route your traffic from pfsense to the internal servers?

        I am not sure what you are asking.

          Yes, it's possible.  Allow All rules on all interfaces will negate the firewall.  It won't act as a router if nothing is using it as their gateway.  Delete all the NAT rules and NAT is disabled.  Install Squid3 and squidGuard and away you go.

              You know, I really should learn to check there more often.  This isn't the first time I've suggested a more complex solution than a simple checkbox here or there.

                But why not only a CentOS system with a Squid + SquidGuard then?

                Is this possible?

                For sure it will, but only with Squid + SquidGuard it will be much easier to administrating.
