<p>We are currently considering installing an instance of pfSense on our Hyper-V R2 based server to act as a content filter, captive portal and general firewall.</p>
<p>Although it is usually bad practice to virtualise a firewall / gateway.. sometimes you gotta work with what you’ve got! <img src="https://forum-microsoft.fr/images/emoji/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=15" title=":slight_smile:" class="emoji" alt=":slight_smile:" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20"></p>
<p>We’ve got 2 physical NICs.. 1 Facing the internet (WAN) and 1 facing our internal LAN.</p>
<p>How would one go about making sure all internet access goes through the pfSense VM?</p>
<p>Is there a configuration that eliminates any possibility of traffic coming in on the LAN NIC bypassing the pfSense VM?</p>
<p>Sorry if it’s a silly question, I’m a developer by day <img src="https://forum-microsoft.fr/images/emoji/twitter/smiley.png?v=15" title=":smiley:" class="emoji" alt=":smiley:" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20"></p>
