Hello, I know pfSense has it's Embedded edition/setup, but I have a bit of a predicament. I have an architecture-wise "plain" x86 PC but which does not have a keyboard, video, NOR a COM port. Without any way to give input to the device I can't configure pfSense.
What would work really nicely is if pfSense would just "pick" the LAN and WAN interfaces for me, without input, and if I need to I can adjust them through the webUI. This would save a whole lot of hassle in general anway, I think with having to initially configure. I know the WRAP and SOEKRIS boards are out-of-the-box ready but it seems like some simple code to look at the available interfaces and simply enable the first found as the LAN (optionally the second as the WAN) and off you go. For reference this is a Toshiba Magnia SG20 with an fxp0 and also an re0 directly connected to a built-in 8-port Ethernet switch (with a PC Card-slot, too). Are there plans to support this (a "no external-input"/appliance device)? I'm currently struggling with how to manually change the config to match the NICs in the box -- a time consuming process. Should I submit a feature request to Redmine or some other process? Thanks, - Jesse P.S. Please reply-all as I subscribe to the digest and may not immediately see replys.
