Pfsense and windows domain
-
@SteveITS Thanks, I have already done it from pfsense.
-
@fladias did you disable DHCP server in pfSense?
-
@SteveITS I will verify and give you feedback thanks!
-
@fladias said in Pfsense and windows domain:
we plug pfsense LAN on the switch the LAN(domain) become inaccessible
How are you seeing that appear? How are you testing?
If you are not using pfSense as a DHCP server or DNS server then nothing should change when it's connected.
-
@stephenw10 from the client computer bottom right network icon notification as well as on shared drive accessibility it becomes disable.
-
So what's changing on the client? It's default route? It's DNS server?
-
@stephenw10 that is clear, without activating DHCP in Pfsense do you believe client still gonna have internet access?
-
It will if your domain controller is passing pfSense as the default gateway to clients via it's DHCP.
OK so you said you were not using pfSense for DHCP but if in fact it's still enabled there then that explains the behaviour you're seeing. Clients will get a dhcp lease and routing dns info from pfSense and lose whatever info the DC is passing them.
-
@stephenw10 I have noticed IP is different the one from pfsense when plugged, when I unplugged pfsense client use other IP from the domain.
-
Yeah you cannot have two DHCP servers. You must choose one and I would use the DC for that. Configure it o use the same subnet as pfSense and pass the pfSense LAN address as a default gateway to clients.
