      Hello, I'm not a pfSense guru, but I've been using FreeBSD for more than 20 years, so the host's POV is not a problem for me.
      I've succsessfully installed pfSens 2,4,3 AMD64 on FreeBSD 11.2 It boots fine, installs fine, configures fine, but after that, hangs :

      The interfaces will be assigned as follows:
      
      WAN  -> vtnet0
      LAN  -> vtnet1

      pfSense 2.4.3-RELEASE amd64 Mon Mar 26 18:02:04 CDT 2018
      Bootup complete
      

      Then nothing happens, I can't configure Web interface, no service is listening on LAN, though I can ping it

      PS : I've already ran ans used successfully pfSense on hardware

      Could you please help ?

      Many thanks in advance

      Regards

      Xavier

        Edit : the problem is a console problem on bhyve. In fact pfSens boots correctly, but the console from vm-bhyve hangs. I had to dig my network in order to find that the LAN interface had the default setup which was (surprising !) 192.168.1.1. Just set my Laptop's interface to that network and voilà, I was able to configure the router with the correct IPs. More question to come in an other section of the forum.
        Cheers
        Xavier
