      Hey

      I would like to use two different pulic IP addresses so that I can separate traffic to two different servers over a different IP.

      How it should work:

      • One cable is connected between my modem and PfSense router (no extra are possible)
      • One WAN interface (as it is now)
      • One extra WAN interface (new)
      • Vlan interfaces that use this new WAN interface to acces the internet

      I have been trying to get it working but when I create a new vlan interface in PfSense whith DHCP I only get 0.0.0.0 as IP.

      Is there someone who knows the solution?
      I am using an sg-1100

        Your second WAN connection must also be on a VLAN with the same ID as the one you set on pfSense.

        @stijnrosaer "One cable is connected between my modem and PfSense router (no extra are possible)"

        so do you have only ONE ISP CPE? (modem)???

        from this, that you get a second WAN option, then there is no redundancy, so what do you need a second WAN for?

        Cats bury it so they can't see it!
