Lab 01: Environment Setup - Galen-Dively/SYS250-02-Journal GitHub Wiki

To begin setting up the environment I added a network adapter to my fw01 computer allowing for LAN communication. Using the pfsense wizard I was able to assign WAN to em0 and LAN to em1. Next, I configured each interface with an IP address, the WAN being 10.0.17.102 and the LAN as 10.0.5.2. The Windows machine has been configured to use the LAN instead of WAN for its network interface. Using the account manager I created a local administrator account and added it to the admin group. After configuring both the windows pc and the firewall I can test the connectivity by pinging. The firewall can access the internet and so can the windows PC.
