December 17, 20169 yr Quick summary of my setup, (I don't want to get into a debate visualising your router about being good or bad practice. This is my home setup and i am wanting as much consolidation as possible) My internet connection i have is presented to me with a CATx ethernet handoff, to connect to this service i need to setup a PPPoE connection and auth to it I have SUPERMicro MB with two ethernet interfaces (One is used for LAN the other WAN/NBN) On my unraid i have a VM which runs pFsense this does my LAN DHCP, my WAN PPPoE and for all intense purpose is my internet gateway To make this work in the go script create a network bridge by doing the following to pass to pFsense VM This is placed before starting the management utility /usr/sbin/brctl delif br0 eth1 /usr/sbin/brctl addbr nbn /usr/sbin/brctl stp nbn on /usr/sbin/brctl addif nbn eth1 /sbin/ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 up /sbin/ifconfig nbn up This setup has been working flawlessly right up until 6.2.4 (previously worked on 6.2.2 and i upgraded past 6.2.3 if i recall) The issue i am now expirencing is that the manual bridge i create WAN/NBN bridge is not a selection as a 2nd bridge in my pfSense VM config and thus when the VM boots, it doesn't see the correct interfaces. I figured out that editing the XML and manually specifying the NBN bridge to the VM resolves the issue. However, what i would like to know is what's changed to make this happen and do i need to change the way i am achieving my solution or is this a bug? Thanks
