I still don't follow. NAT is not a security mechanism, and MAC addresses are not privileged information. If you're suggesting that more people will be connecting to the internet without a firewall, then I beg to differ (though pfsense doesn't support v6 yet, and just blocks ipv6 by default). Adam - While that's certainly true, in my opinion, whether an IP is known or unknown is irrelevant to that host's security.
