Title: How many network cards does OPNsense require?
Post by: ohthisis on May 26, 2026, 09:28:52 AM
Hello,
I have installed OPNsense on a virtual machine with one network card connected to the internet. I want to use OPNsense as a Tor Gateway. Do I really need to have two network cards?

Thank you.

In fact you don't need any network card, but at least one is useful to start using the bulk of the features.  :)


Cheers,
Franco
