      Hello everybody

      didn't know if this is the right board, so please move the thread if not. :)
      My setup: 1 LAN, 1 WAN

      Sice some weeks, my ISP provides more than one IP address over DHCP. The idea, to aquire more than one IP on the same physical WAN port. Is there a possibility to do this on pfsense without using VLANs?

      Thanks

        short anwer: no

        long answer:
        -its impossible to use multiple interfaces with the same gateway address (pppoe is an exception)  <– this rules out a solution with vlan's
        -its also not possible to lease 2 ip's on the same interface with dhcp-client as far as i know.

        the only thing you could do is:

        modem----pfsense---LAN
            |            |
        dlink/linksys--

        Then you could portforward all ports from dlink/linksys to a secondary WAN interface on pfsense
