      I want to install a dedicated pfSense box in a virtual machine (running KVM) just for the VPN server. I don't need the other features. Now I have a couple of questions, f.e.

      • Can I install pfSense with only one NIC? pfSense will be installed in a bridged networked VM. It will have IP 192.168.1.5. So what does the configuration of the box look like?

      • Is this a good idea or are there better solutions? I prefer NOT to install the VPN server on the host itself
