      Hi,

      I'm new to pfSense and I'm not sure how or where I should place my bridge.  Here is my situation,

      1. My ISP gave me an IP address 120.123.160.130 & gateway is 120.123.60.129
      2. I have a router which is routing 2 subnets of public IPs (112.160.240.1/24 & 200.161.124.33/28)

      Question is where should I place the bridge? In between my ISP & my router, or behind my router?

      My pfSense box has 3 interfaces, WAN, LAN & OPT1.  How should I setup it?  Thank you.

      Is the following setup correct?

      ISP–-(OPT1)-----pfSense-----(LAN: 192.168.1.1[Bridge with OPT1]) –- Router(IP:120.123.160.130 GW:120.123.160.129)
