Title: Bridging in opnsense
Post by: nikbru on August 07, 2019, 01:38:26 pm

We have an Opnsense with a PPPoe connection to the ISP. Behind our opnsense we want to use multiple devices with public ip's (web server + remote access server). How could we configure this in opnsense?

Hello nikbru,
I'll try to help you, but I need some clarification. Is your question about configuring a ISP router in bridge mode so is it used as a simple modem?
Is your question about how to open ports on opnsense so those services are available outside your network?

if the PPPoE offers more than a /32 then you're better off using 1:1 NAT to map the public IP's to your internal hosts. A bridge on the public internet is decidedly dodgy :o
