      I have a problem getting round my network setup. I am new to PFsense, more familiar with NetGear and Draytek devices.

      I have two wans working on failover (this is working) - everything is currently natting out of a single public address. I need anything up to 20 VLANS, some requiring different Outbound NAT addresses, some 1:1, some with their own VPN and at least one where I need to simply pass one public IP via DHCP to another firewall… I have no idea where to begin!!! I know I'll be fine once I understand but the sheer number of different configuration options has me a little dazed. Specifically I have these questions:

      1. How can I pass a public address in my range straight through to a defined VLAN and assign it to a DHCP server on pfsense to hand out?
      2. How can I tell 1 VLAN to NAT out of one public ip and then a whole group of other VLAN's to NAT out another?
      3. How can I replicate everything I have done on WAN1 to WAN2?

      I have attached my required network diagrams as I am damn sure I can't explain the full extent in words! (IP's are purely fictional)

      Any help greatly appreciated!
