      Greetings,
       I am setting up a single WAN scenario.  Please see below:

      (WAN/Comcast network)
                           |
                  [Cable Router]
                           |  (public CIDR/28 address space)
                  [pfSense Router]
                     /     |    
                    /    (DMZ)    
                   /                (WLAN private)
           (LAN private)

      What I'm trying to accomplish is to have the DMZ utilize the same CIDR /28 address block that exists on the WAN side of the pfSense Router.  I'm trying to find out the most efficient way of doing this, be it setting up a VLAN, setting up a bridge, etc.  Anyone have any thoughts?

      I've seen posts mention CARP and virtual IP addresses, but unfortunately I don't know what these are.

      Thanks in advance for your help!!

        Found the answer in the book "The Definitive Guide to pfSense".  I'm not wild about how the book is laid out, but it had the information I needed…Guess it turned out to be a $35.00 question.  If you're looking to do the same configuration, I'd go read that book.
