Pfsense on Hyper-V, same server as DC/DHCP/DNS
-
Hello,
Working on a small network for a friend...
I've never tried to virtualize Pfsense before and have always run its own box so I'm getting a bit confused with virtualizing switches.
I'd like to go through the steps and have more experienced users comment on where I'm wrong or if I'm missing some details...
Server has 2 NIC cards and also is the DC/AD/DNC/DHCP running Server 2019.
-
Comcast modem (10.1.10.1) with DHCP disabled (do I have to put in to bridge mode?) into eth01 (server upper eth port/WAN)
-
Hyper-V with Pfsense installed, virtual WAN switch linked to eth01 (management disabled). Pfsense VM IP assigned as 10.1.10.2 with comcast as gateway and DNS (10.1.10.1). Virtual LAN switch assigned to eth02 (server bottom eth02 port/LAN, management enabled).
-
??? Kind of lost here, what do I need to configure the IP/sub/gateway etc on my Server 2019 to make sure it plays nice with the Pfsense VM.
-
Create VLANs in Pfsense that coordinate with DHCP scopes & tags.
-
Eth02 into physical Netgear switch, clients connect to switch.
So ideally...
Comcast ->
Pfsense router/firewall ->
WS19 ->
VLANS ->
Clients/Wireless -
