      Ok, and you have LAN assigned as em1 I assume?

      Is the Lunbuntu VM also using that same Internal Network?

      If you set it to DHCP does it pull an IP from pfSense?

        yes, that's right.

        The lubuntu VM uses the same internal network sir, but different MAC's should be like that, right?

        I've set DHCP on pfsense's em1 (LAN) interface, but on the lubuntu DHCP VM it gets the same IP as the pfsense setting

          It looks like changed the pfSense LAN IP and subnet from 192.168.10.1/24 to 192.168.15.1/24. Did you enabled the DHCP server on LAN at that step?
          Is the Lubuntu interface configured as a dhcp client?

            now the lubuntu VM has got a DHCP IP from pfsense sir, what's the next step?

              I've tried the web gui on the lubuntu VM, but still the web gui pack can't run.

                What exactly are you trying to connect to? Looks like you switched the gui to http in the previous screenshot.

                Can the Lubuntu VM ping 192.168.15.1?

                      I've been able to connect, sir, and pfsense can already be accessed via lubuntu.

                      for the next I will install suricata and snort on this pfsense, then how to make this lubuntu interface can be secured by suricata and snort how? looks like the LAN interface in pfsense will take the IP 192.168.15.1 while the VM lubuntu IP is 192.168.15.5

                        You should first read the setup instructions in the docs and in the IPS/IDS section of the forums here. Then open a thread there if you have Suricata/Snort questions, that's no longer a virtualisation problem.

                            Sure, I'll answer questions as time allows.

                            I agree with what @Patch said previously though. You need to discover how to do a lot of this for yourself in order to learn from it.
