In this lab you will perform the steps necessary to set up a pfSense firewall from the basic command line interface and then configure the firewall using the web configuration GUI on a Windows machine. This lab will provide an understanding how network interfaces are configured to allow network connectivity. You will also view and create a firewall rule which enforces your understanding of how network traffic can be managed at different levels – (IP-based, Protocol-based, Machine-based, etc).
