Lab 01 ‐ Virtual Firewall and Windows 10 Configuration - skyleroriordan/my-tech-journal GitHub Wiki

In this lab I configured my pfsense firewall and my windows workstation.

Things to remember:

In the firewall in order to assign interfaces, press 1 and then change the WAN name to em0 and the LAN name to em1.

To set up the interface IP address press 2. press 1 for WAN or press 2 for LAN. My WAN IP is 10.0.17.110. For both the WAN and LAN, its a 24 bit subnet mask. The WAN upstream gateway is 10.0.17.2. The LAN IP is 10.0.5.2.

On the windows 10 workstation make sure to change the network configurations in the IP properties.

When configuring the gui DNS server is 8.8.8.8 and make sure to uncheck "block private networks from entering via WAN."

to do a tracert with a certain number of hops type "tracert -h" then the number of hops.
