Title: [SOLVED] Transparent Bridge Passing All Packets
Post by: martinicj on September 25, 2015, 09:05:32 pm

I am trying to recreate a configuration we've used for years on pfSense. I have the WAN and LAN interface setup in a transparent bridge with RSTP enabled. I would like to manage traffic between these two interfaces with firewall rules.

I have test machines plugged into both interfaces. Traffic passes freely over the transparent bridge as though the firewall were disabled. I have tried with the 'net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge' tunable set to '0' (as it was on the pfSense) and '1' as shown in the screenshot.

I have attached screenshots and would be happy to upload a sanitized config.

Thank you.

Did you check with the transparent bridge setup guide? https://wiki.opnsense.org/index.php/Howto_transparent_firewall_bridge

We changed things since forking, it may be this doesn't work anymore although this is not my are of expertise. jos@opnsense knows more, he wrote the document. :)

I did not see the guide. Thank you. I'll let you know if that solves my issue.
