Hi all,
Can anybody help me with this setup.
What I really want is to run Pfsense under Virtual box and at the same time control a Switch
WAN - NIC1 - Pfsense box (virtual) - NIC2 - Switch - Pclients
I have been at this for 2 weeks already and had tried several configs but my internet connection goes down everytime I enable TCP/IP v4 on NIC 2. Many many thanks in advance to those who can solve this issue.

So I got it solved through hours and hours of research… basically I got rid of MSLB and reconfigured everything. I now have a working server and network that connects to the net via pure software pfsense. Now it's time to connect diskless nodes to this server...
