Bridge Devices from Telco

[jits]

Hello.

I have two DSL modems that are setup to work on a local loop. The dsl modems are at different locations. At those locations there is pfsense 2.0 RC3, but I have not passed the dsl modems through pfsense.

Instead, I have connected each DSL modem to a switch at each location and have bridged the networks this way. Am I crazy?

Can I pass the DSL modems through PFsense instead and bridge the networks this way? Are there illustrations on how to do this?

Do you know of the advantages or disadvatnges of going through pfsense instead of from switch to switch?

Thanks, Jits.
