      I have a 16 core 32 thread pfsense box 32 gigs of ram .
      I would like to use one of the interfaces to run the telus router for optic tv so the interface would get the ip from telus and not pfsense and also bypass firewall and all packages in pfsense is this possible so i could remove a switch that is between the ont pfsense .

        You can bridge it to the WAN and just add pass-all rules.

            Assign the new interface.
            Enable it and set the IP type as 'None'.
            In Interfaces > Assignments > Bridges create a new bridge and add the WAN and the new interface to it.
            Add an allow all firewall rule to the new interface.
