One Lan Adapter.

Hi,

You can do it. Firstly you should uncheck auto bridge config on vmware network editor. Then add 3 nics for virtual machine. Then configure one of wireless nics for wan1 and second for wan2 and third ones for Lan interface. On your Lan nic you should give gw of pfsense lan ip address. Your ip address must be same subnet on pfSesne lan ip address. Make them install and share what you done. I will try to help you about your case.

Thanks for your replay
I'm confused, How it'll done, Coz I'm very basic in VMware.
In my Virtual Network Editor has

Custom(VMnet0-192.168.74.0, VMnet2-192.168.131.0, VMnet3-192.168.136.0, VMnet4-192.168.109.0, VMnet5-192.168.12.0, VMnet6-192.168.1.0, VMnet7-192.168.220.0, VMnet9-192.168.150.0) Host-only (connect VMs internall in private network)

Net (VMnet1-192.168.131.0, VMnet8-192.168.179.0) DHCP Enabled

Now what should i do. plz

[rabbyweb]

Just I Restore Default "Virtual Net Editor"
and Now
VMnet1 type-Host only      Host Conection-Conected  Dhcp-Enabled  192.168.205.0
VMnet8 type-NAT            Host Conection-Conected  Dhcp-Enabled  192.168.67.0

and other same Custome

Now i config it:
VMnet0 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-WiFi1
VMnet2 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-WiFi2
VMnet3 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-MyLan

It's right or wrong plz tell me,
and what will be the pfSense Network config

Hi again,

Firstly you should assign your real nics act on virtual network editor. (figure 1 and 2) I assigned VMnet2 alias Giga_Lan for PfSense LAN leg. And VMnet0 for WAN1 i did't have more real nics to explain them. Then i started to create new vm for PfSense. For my config D-Link is WAN1 (it can be your wireless nics). When you create new virtual machine for pfSense you should add at least 2 more ethernet card adapter (figure 3) then go to setup. Don't forget to mount iso image (32bit or 64 bit it depends on your hardware conf.) Your pfSense Lan ip and your local machine ip address must be same subnet. (i think you should remove gateway address on wireless nics) Install it i will explain more about it. You are not alone. :)

Now I have problem with pfSense installation:
I select VLan Interfaces:
vlan0  VLAN tag 1, Interface em0
vlan1  VLAN tag 2, Interface em1
vlan2  VLAN tag 3, Interface le0
vlan3  VLAN tag 4, Interface le1

Now it's show No link-up detected.

Hi Again,

You don't need to add vlans. Your second conf. was good to accomplish this scenario.

@rabbyweb:

Just I Restore Default "Virtual Net Editor"
and Now
VMnet1 type-Host only      Host Conection-Conected  Dhcp-Enabled  192.168.205.0
VMnet8 type-NAT            Host Conection-Conected  Dhcp-Enabled  192.168.67.0

and other same Custome

Now i config it:
VMnet0 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-WiFi1
VMnet2 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-WiFi2
VMnet3 type-Bridge  Extenal Connection-MyLan

When you done those steps. You must add 3 nics for your pfsense box. Wan1 or wan2 must be vmnet0 and vmnet2 and your LAN must be vmnet3. Then hard stuf is beginning to choose which ones are wan/s. Reconf them and add conf pic to see to help correct ways to setup.

Thanks for replay
as you say, I did as Image.
Now I'm confused which is my Lan Interface and which two is Wan.
Now I use em0 as LAN and le0 as WAN and other le1 can not take 2nd wan
it's take as OPT1

I set my LAN IP 192.168.100.1
But I cant access with hosted pc

Hi,

It is easy way to determine which nics when assign to pfSense. Send you an image to explain how to determine (my solution). When you assign nics to vm disconnect one of them to determine which is your lan, wan1 or wan2.

Thanks SGTR

I did it like as PIC.

I ping it, it's work. but I can' access from my VMware installed pc with 192.168.100.1
can you make for me a video plz, So i can get better understand.

Also I try to Lan interface connect other computer, in web browser faille to load anything

Thanks

Hi Again,

I think you should firts remove nics on your vm then add again them. After that do steps.
