      Hi, I have 4 nic in system and 2 WAN IPs. I want to setup as two separate LAN

      WAN1 -> LAN1
      WAN2 (OPT1) -> LAN2 (OPT2)

      Both are separate, no VLAN, just using dummy switches.

      I have setup WAN1 with DHCP, then when I try to set DHCP for WAN2, it only allows static IP. I could setup 2 instance of pfsense, but I prefer to keep it in 1 instance. Is that possible?

        Post what you are actually seeing. You can certainly have more than one DHCP WAN.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!
