Hi Andrew, my first thought: logical subnetting? Split up your private network into 2 groups logically. for the easier creation of the firewall rules the bitmask subneting is a good idea. p.e. 192.168.1.0/24 split into 2 smaller subnets like 192.168.1.0/25 + 192.168.1.128/25 pos. TRAP: logical subnet !! do not configure that subnet mask on the nic of the pfsense nor in the clients all NICs get the 255.255.255.0 as netmask! One logical subnet: The full access clients get an firm IP-Address configured. The second logical subnet addresses getting served by DHCP. All Guests must have DHCP Create the neccessary rules in the firewall for the deny of unknown/unconfigured full access clients, the restiction of the limited clients and the rule for the full access clients.
