      Right now I have my esxi server offsite.  I connect to it through the public IP address, but I am wanting to assign it a LAN address, so I can join it to my domain.  Pfsense is my router/firewall for all of my VM's.  My question is how can I assign it a LAN IP through pfsense?  Below is my network config in esxi.  Can someone point me in the right direction on what to do?

      Thanks so much

        vSwitch1 -> Properties -> Add

        Connection Type - VMKernel

        Name: Internal Management Network
        Use this port for Management Traffic - Tick

        Network Type - IP

        Add in dedicated info with pfsense ip as gateway

        I think that is what your looking for. I dont have a local Exsi to test on and my servers are remote in another country so cant mess around with these settings to confirm for you.
