PFSENSE!!!!! is great

I agree with you that pfsense is a pretty great solution. I’ve used it for both a firewall as well as an application platform. It is a solid FOSS solution.

As to your migration, don’t forget to turn of dnsmasq on your fog server now. Its not needed if pfsense is handing out the right file names for your network.

I couldn’t agree more!

And being opensource, it has the ability to do more than just DHCP and routing.

I use my pfsense router as a webfilter and also use it for NAT/internet rules (I shut my internet off at night except for certain devices).

I love the control that pfsense gives you, and I also enjoy the easy set up with fog

I built my own routing management software: https://github.com/wayneworkman/OpenVPNRouter
Doesn’t have bells and whistles or a pretty web interface yet, but it routes, NATs, does firewall, prevents DNS snooping by forcefully rerouting all DNS queries to my chosen DNS server, sends my whole house’s traffic through a PIA VPN transparently, does DHCP, and emails me my Public IP every time I get a new one, and does port forwarding too, and has automatic “healing” for when the VPN connection goes down.

The project could use a whole lot of love, I could do so much with it. I’m just less interested in making it better now. I’m pursuing other things at the moment.

@Wayne-Workman Fabulous!!! I shall give it a try in a virtual machine. Feed back to follow.

@george1421 I sure have disabled it but I kept the file for when I transport my fogserver to setup business sites. So it all comes in handy.

tendrás una metodología de instalación y configuración del servidor fog y pfsense…

@lalo said in PFSENSE!!!!! is great:

The connection between FOG and pfSense is pretty simple. I guess that you use pfsense for dhcp server? If so there are only a few fields that must be filled out. I can provide a screen shot of the settings in about 1 hour if you need them.

@george1421 En efecto uso pfsense para servidor de dhcp. Y no hay pasos previos de integración de los servidores!!

[george1421]

@lalo Here is how you set it up

1. Services->DHCP Server
2. Select the interface where the dhcp server is running
3. Scroll down the page and select the network booting button.
4. Fill out the form as below
