      Hi guys,
      Noob question. I want to setup an IPSec VPN for few virtual machines of mine using pfSense at home. There is an external IPsec VPN firewall on the other end which I'm not bothered about right now, since I know that I can configure on that end if this can be setup.
      So, how do I go about setting it up? The ADSL router is setup to give out IPs using DHCP to all other connected devices on the network. So, I'm on the 10.0.0.0/24 network. Since pfSense works on VMware workstation, what IP should I give for the WAN interface? By default, it seems to take up an IP via DHCP. I can still configure it to have a static IP, but that'll still be something via the same subnet as what's given out by the ADSL router.

      1. WAN interface is set to bridge
      2. LAN interface is set to NAT

      How do I go about this now?
