I could be wrong, but I don't see anything that VLANs can offer you that physical interfaces cannot, unless you lack physical interfaces, which you apparently don't. Configure each interface as its own subnet, configure your firewall rules as you like (they are default deny by default, except the first (LAN) interface, and you're in business. You're looking at doing something like this?: Internet | | pfsense---Server1 (S1) / | \ S2 S3 S4 If you want your servers to have unrestricted access to each other, as on an unmanaged switch, then bridge the interfaces in question. If not, then each on its own subnet with a rule to allow access only as needed. db --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
