What I am looming to do is set up box with 3 nics. I want to bridge
two of them but not assign IP addresses to those nics. I want to
(possibly) set up an ip address in the third nic for management
purposes.

I want this to allow me to drop the box inline anywhere on a network
using the two bridged nics and have traffic pass through the box
without needing to change anything network wise. I want to be able to
shape and possibly filter traffic passing the bridge.

>From my initial reading a week or two ago I thought pfsense would be
able to do this for me. I brought up my first box with pfsense this
morning but it seems to want ip addresses where I don't want to put
any.

Am I misunderstanding something, or is there a documented workaround
that I can use to do what I want?

all the best,

drew
