Hello,

We are trying to setup and configure Packet Fence to test it on our network for 
wired guest internet access.  Our security team has required that all guest net 
internet traffic be isolated from our internal network, but we'd like to be 
able to manage the packet fence installation from our internal network 
(probably in the DMZ).  We will have a proxy server delivered via DHCP to 
clients successfully registering on the guest network.  If my DMZ IP space is 
192.168.0.0, the Guest Normal Internet traffic vlan is 192.168.2.0, with Guest 
Registration vlan 192.168.3.0 and Isolation vlan 192.168.4.0, how do I 
configure my interfaces in packet fence?  PF is installed on RHEL6 in a vmware 
VM managed via vSphere.  Eventually we will route the guest net vlans in a 
separate VRF across our MPLS tunnel via a DMVPN encrypted tunnel but for now 
we're trying to get the installation working at a single site where the 
internet connection, proxy and packet fence server and guests are all located 
at the same site.  Here's what we're assuming now:

We'd like to be able to manage the packet fence configuration from our internal 
network vlan 100 via the DMZ:
PF server 192.168.0.7/24, GW 192.168.0.1
Vlan 100
Type Management

Isolation vlan
PF server 192.168.4.7/24, GW 192.167.4.7
Vlan 183
Type Isolation

Registration vlan
PF server 192.168.3.7/24, GW 192.168.3.7
Vlan 182
Type Registration

Authenticated Guests with internet access:
PF server 192.168.2.7/24, GW192.168.2.1
Vlan 181
Type ?

TMG Proxy server at "http://192.168.2.3/wpad.dat"; (the DHCP server on PF will 
need to deliver this to clients in the Guest VLAN)

Question:
What interface type do we select for each of the above, since the PF server 
configurator page only presents the options "Management", "Registration", and 
"Isolation", so we're not sure what type to select for the Authenticated Guests 
vlan.



Cheers,
Sue
