      Hi. I bridged the WLAN (wifi) with the LAN so the wireless devices can access the wired devices on the LAN. Now I have an extra interface called BRIDGE. I have two questions now.

      1. Where do I enable the DHCP server (LAN, WLAN, or BRIDGE interface)?

      2. On which interface do I set the firewall rules? I have a lot of rules set up on the LAN interface already.

        1. Bridge
        2. Bridge

        Also check System - Advanced - System Tunables:
        net.link.bridge.pfil_member=0
        net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge=1

        I would also recommend to read if_bridge(4)

        We use the mighty pf, we cannot be fooled.

          Cool. I knew that was an easy question. Thanks for the information. I'll look up if_bridge also.
