Configuration / Issues with initial Setup
« on: May 26, 2016, 04:30:49 PM »
Hi Guys,

I'm brand new here and I'm having a little trouble wrapping my head around the setup for WANOS.

At the most basic level here is my issue :

I have an extremely basic network (192.168.100.0/24)

I have 3 machines on this network and the router (pfsense) is configured on 192.168.100.254

Now my understanding of how WANOS works is it is inserted into the network between my switch and the PFSense router in bridge mode so it is able to see all traffic destined to leave the network.

In all the documentation it is explicitly stated that the LAN and WAN interfaces on WANOS are NOT to be connected to the same LAN segment. Considering this how then am I supposed to connect the WANOS in my network. In order for all of my devices to be able to reach the gateway the WANOS appliance will have to pass the traffic through essentially putting both interfaces on the same network Segment.

If anyone has a few pointers for me on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Laoistom
