      Hello,

      I have signed up to have a esxi 6.5 server with online.net, they provide a single external IP to allow a single server hosted with the provided Esxi.

      Like this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krTKQEVnrFM

      I believe it is possible to set that IP as the WAN IP but the gateway IP they give is on a different range so I cannot set the IP details as they do not line up.

      Please could someone advise how I can setup the network settings so the pfsense machine to provide the WAN IP to the DHCP VM that would be connected via a

      Address: 212.129.17.46 (not my IP, just one I can buy)
      Subnetmask: 255.255.255.255
      Gateway: 62.210.0.1
      DNS 1: 62.210.16.6
      DNS 2: 62.210.16.7
      

      Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Thanks
