      Hello, I need some advise.
      I have install a pfsense server in a school, and by the way it's very very good product.
      I have only one NIC to my LAN, but now I want to install a second NIC to a different network, so my neebie question is: could I have a separate DHCP to that second NIC?
      Sorry for my bad English.
      Thanks in advance.

        Yes you can have a different DHCP server on an additional NIC.

        We do what we must, because we can.

          Once the extra NIC has been configured under the Interfaces menu, a new tab will appear on Services -> DHCP Server.

            thank you both.
            I will do it this afternoon, and post the result later.
            Thanks again for the very quickly response.
            ;)
