Quick question -- I'm looking at pfSense, and wondering if it's possible
to use two WAN interfaces which receive their IPs via DHCP, and also if
it's a problem if they share default gateways?
Long story short, I have two connections to the same ISP and would like to
direct some traffic to one, and some traffic to the other. Can I do this?
Yes, DHCP on multi-wan is supported.
Cool, that helps.
Any idea whether or not having the same (DHCP-assigned) "default"
gateway IP on multiple WAN interfaces will cause a problem? In other
words, my reading so far suggests that routing is done based on the
destination gateway, not the interface, although that may not be
entirely correct.
Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm just trying to get things planned out
before I rewire to handle the net configuration -- Unfortunately my
managed switch can't cope with the same MAC address on multiple physical
ports even if it's different VLANs, so this change requires physical
rewiring, I can't just reconfigure my switch :(

It's not an optical illusion. It just looks like one.
