Multiple WANs and wireless
-
Hello everyone!
I'm newbie with pfSense, so please be patient and bare with me. Here's my problem as you can see from my attached image. I have a MSI motherborad that supports six PCI cards, so i filled them all in. pfSense did recognize all of them … some are Atheros wireless, some Realtek NIC, etc ... anyways ...I'm trying to setup a pfSense box as follows:
Internet --> pfSense --> LAN
Connection is hard-wired
IP address for pfSsense NIC is either static or DHCP assigned: 192.168.1.x
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0WAN1 --> pfSense --> LAN
Connection is hard-wired
IP address for pfSsense NIC is either static or DHCP assigned: 10.20.10.x
Gateway: 10.20.10.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
RIP is passed through, to access different subnetsWAN2 --> pfSense --> LAN
Connection is hard-wired
IP address for pfSsense static - examp: 10.5.0.15
Gateway: 10.5.0.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
RIP is passed through, to access different subnetsWAN3 --> pfSense --> LAN
Connection is WIRELESS - can only connect as a wireless client to access point
using Atheros PCI card on pfSense box.
IP address for pfSsense NIC is either static or DHCP assigned: 10.0.1.x
Gateway: 10.0.1.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0Regarding the LAN side of pfSense box, i'd like to use two NIC's
- wired LAN card to pass on to a switch for wired clients
- wireless card to act as AP for wireless clients.
WIRED NIC
IP 192.168.100.1
DHCP sever enabled
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0WIRELESS NIC
on the same subnet as above
IP 192.168.100.100
passing the same DHCP as above LAN to clientsThe rules:
1. All clients on the LAN side should be able to browse and access Internet and WANs
2. No traffic at all between various WANs and Internet .... only traffic allowed between WANs and LAN
and Internet and LAN
3. Access to clients on LAN from WANs or Internet side only through VPN (username, password)
4. traffic between wireless and wired clients on the LAN side fully open.I know this is pretty demanding task to complete, the idea is to create a central routing system in a box. As I read through the forum I see that some things may not be achievable. The thing that worries me is the WAN3-Wireless client conection from pfSense to AP.
I'm still pondering on how to do this, so I'd appreciate any help.
Thnak you!
