        if you manually assign the ubuntu server ip address with the default gateway 192.168.12.1, will it be able to ping 192.168.12.1 ? for example, 192.168.12.2

            Well it shows dhcp server running... So if your client is not getting dhcp - more than likely its not on the correct network via your VM setup..

            Does the dhcp service pfsense show any discover in the logs? Does it show its trying to had out an offer?

            The point of setting static on the machines was to actually validate you have connectivity to pfsense where the dhcp server is running.

                  Your EM1 is not up - status = NO CARRIER. kind of hard for anything to talk to it when its not online. Or get a dhcp from it.

                  Did you setup your VM settings to enable that nic on power up?

                      Not sure what your issue is, but I have run pfsense on pretty much every VM solution out there and not had any issues. VirtualBox, Vmware Workstation, Vmware sphere/esxi, Hyper-V, etc.

                      All I can tell you if pfsense doesn't see the interface up - then no its not going to be able to do anything with that nic.

                            And what does the log say? Did you actually enable the nic to be on in vmware? It looks like you have it enabled in your previous pic.. So what does the log say?

                            Lets see your lan segments tab.. Did you configure those - do you have any other vms on this lan segment? Did you actually create a lan segment for vms to connect to? What version of workstation are you running?
