Cloud Firewall Mastery: IT Admins' Guide to Free pfSense Firewall in Hyper-V

I will demo how to install a powerful router/firewall and much more for $0 dollars. Using Pfsense x64 version of FreeBSD we will install it in Hyper-V and configure and launch our virtual appliance’s web interface. We will place our production servers/containers behind the virtual appliances and test throughput. We will diagram our Hyper-V layout and diagram our network topology to help you understand this technology so you can use it at home. We will share many topologies you can build with Pfsense in your home lab.

may i recommend a video i think you'd have fun with? High end virtual workload delivery :) an office that's filled with 4k video editors, or powerful CAD users, and they're accessing hyper-v machines running on high powered server that's delivering virtual graphics to each VM 😏

Great. How can I deploy the pfsense to protect my cloud servers?

[runningcolt]

you didn't segment the management operating system from the firewall virtual appliance with a vLan tag. is that intentional? also, this couldn't have come at a better time :D not sure how you knew that....

[selfignorance]

Do I need an Intel Nic for this to work?

[karimiamir]

i want implement this service in my network (in fact in actual scenario) and in this way please help me to assign particular setting for my network adapters. (in this video you use from Virtual win11 (private network adapter (LAN)) for connecting to pfsense web interface but in my scenario i want connect from my host system).

Can you create in virtual box or VMware

[johnsenchak]

My Smology Router does all that plus more (VPN) and I get daily updated for the intrusion protection and security advisory

I think you are going to like SONiC NOS by Microsoft azure.
