How to setup Pfsense firewall and pfsense proxy separately in a single Network
-
I am confused that How to setup Pfsense firewall and pfsense proxy separately in a single Network. I have used Pfsense as Squid Proxy server, but my clients are asking to create a network like
Pfsense firewall in one machine and pfsense proxy server in another machine.
can you people please help me regarding to create this network ?

So they want the proxy and firewall on their own boxes?
Then you have to setup a box running PFSense and a box running Squid. I don't really see the problem to be honest?
If you don't understand how to setup squid then maybe they should hire a consultant in to set it up if finances permit?
If you are allowed to hack at it yourself then you can start here.

It would, perhaps, be best if you specified what sort of help you need. As JBNixx says, setting up a separate proxy server and firewall isn't difficult. Is it the firewall part you don't understand or the proxy bit? There are plenty of links you'll find via Google - and this forum - that can tell you how to set up a PFS firewall, no problem. The same with Squid. Remember: Google is your friend.

Your much better off having a go and asking specific questions for things that don't work or you find difficult.
Asking how to setup PFSense is a much too open question to be able to answer.
But i would start with the official documentation for installing and the initial configuration.

Best I can do, given I don't know what your network is like. Even on a basic level, any of these how-to's ought to be enough for you to get started. If you get stuck, post a question concerning the specific problem. Otherwise, links to how-to's are all you're going to get at this stage, I'm afraid.
