      @johnpoz:

      The point is you can not have the same IP on the same network and expect it to work..

      Where did I say this can works???
      Sorry again if my explanations was not clear…

        You didn't - just pointing out this fact so everyone is clear ;)  How you create the different networks is up to you.

          @jaf:

          I think the problem is that my English is not so good, and my explanation not clear. :(
          Or maybe I'm an idiot? I hope not.

          And yes, I don't understand how it can be technically impossible to develop a VM integrating the 2 devices solution, and developing a special HMI to control all that. After, you call this VM "pfsenseMulti".

          Isn't this a heck of a lot of trouble to avoid the proper solution, that is change the IP address to a different subnet?

          PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
          i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
          UniFi AC-Lite access point

          I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
