To make a 4 port NIC act like a VLAN switch, you would just put one IP subnet on each interface and not bridge anything. To make a 4 port NIC act like a switch that can control traffic between the ports using firewall rules, you can bridge them all together and configure your rules accordingly. That's nothing like a VLAN switch though. You will need a decently powerful (1 GHz or more) system to get 100 Mb wire speed through multiple interfaces simultaneously (and that's cutting it pretty close to the limit of the PCI bus with four 100 Mb ports on one PCI card). But if you don't need much throughput it will be fine. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

I could be wrong, but I don't see anything that VLANs can offer you that physical interfaces cannot, unless you lack physical interfaces, which you apparently don't. Configure each interface as its own subnet, configure your firewall rules as you like (they are default deny by default, except the first (LAN) interface, and you're in business. You're looking at doing something like this?: Internet | | pfsense---Server1 (S1) / | \ S2 S3 S4 If you want your servers to have unrestricted access to each other, as on an unmanaged switch, then bridge the interfaces in question. If not, then each on its own subnet with a rule to allow access only as needed. db - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

David I am not very technical. My server room is far away from my internet connection at my home. So there is only one cable going from the internet to server room.

Why bridge multiple interfaces, then separate them as vlans with no vlan-capable switch? Wouldn't you get the same effect by just running the separate interfaces as separate LANs?

For example, a constant ping won't get dropped when you add a block rule since it has an existing state. Once you stop it, wait a few seconds, and start it again, it will get blocked.

Re: [pfSense Support] Pfsense 1.2.3 alix 2d13 IDE disk installation problem
This is really a weird setting! You are using a board that has been created and design to work with Compact Flash. I think It is a bit "strange" to try to use It with an IDE drive. I would suggest that you use an embedded image as described in here: http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=472 Then you can decompress the image (make sure you grab an image with the right size (1Go - 2Go - 4Go) and simply use dd to grave the image on your CF card. # gunzip pfSense-1.2.3-1g-20090928-1005-nanobsd.img.gz # cat pfSense-1.2.3-1g-20090928-1005-nanobsd.img | dd of=/dev/disk1 bs=16k After that all you have to do is put the card in your Alix 2d13 and boot… If you want to see the output, just connect to the card using the serial port. And that's It. I don't see why you are trying to use an IDE drive with this kind of hardware… ?
