In my network pfsense is the firewall and router for my entire network. It is the only machine with direct WAN access. All other machines are behind it (and connected through a switch).
pfSense, the open source firewall distribution that is based on FreeBSD has seen a new release. This new version brings with it a number of updates and fixes to security advisories.
We have a PFSENSE installation with a few physical interfaces defined:
192.168.1.0/24 - LAN
192.168.2.0/24 - WIFI
192.168.3.0/24 - SERVERS
10.61.88.0/23 - New Requirement..... read on
The new requirement has been laid out by a supplier, they require access to their equipment, which is all attached to a DrayTek Router/Firewall.
hi guys, I have a problem about ipv6 on F17. My network support ipv6. I add
Code:
NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
to /etc/sysconfig/network. I use Network-Manager to access network.
After I connect the system to network, I can go to ipv6 sites and use transmission to download via ipv6.
I have pFsense machine and one nagios(NagiosXI) installed machine. On pfSense machine DHCP server is running.
i want to monitor pfSense i.e DHCP status, interface through nagios using SNMP.
I have add pfSense in Nagios and it is showing CPU usage,swap,memory etc.
Our office is using a multi-wan router as dhcp/router/firewall.
but now I want to put a pc with pfsense between that router and switch, so I can do more advanced firewall task like traffic monitor and content filtering.
after reading I found that pfsense can be a ip-less transparent firewall, so I just have to plug the cables to both NIC and done.
this solution looks easy and I dont have to chan
I am thinking of using pfsense on my ubuntu server box. I'd virtualise pfsense with virtualbox, and have it route and firewall all traffic on and to my server and the rest of my lan.
However, I've heard that using pfsense on anything but a dedicated box poses a security risk. Why is this, and is this really an issue for a home network like mine?
I've been trying to figure out a complete working solution for IPSec VPN implementation on FreeBSD but with no luck till now.
PfSense, a free, open source customized distribution of FreeBSD tailored for use as a firewall and router, is now at version 2.0.2.
PfSense 2.0.2 is a maintenance release and is recommended for all installations. Users can upgrade from any previous release directly to version 2.0.2.
The changelog is quite large and covers a lot of areas, from stability to various networking fixes.
