        You don't do that on pfsense - pfsense has no say in devices on the same network from talking to each other.

        Pfsense is L3 router/firewall - it routes and firewalls traffic leaving 1 network and going to a different network.

        If you want to firewall PC X from talking to PC Y - move it to a different network/vlan, or use host firewalls on your devices you don't want it talking to. Or setup private vlan on your switching environment, etc. Pfsense can not stop X from talking to Y when they are on the same network.

        Please don't Chat/PM me for help, unless mod related
