Quote from: spetrillo on November 15, 2025, 06:52:45 PMHello all,
My client runs an OPNsense firewall on VMware. It runs really well and takes no real resources. I am building a replacement 25.7 firewall. As I got to the storage config I stopped thinking...should I allocate two disks and run these in a ZFS raid 1 pair. Well can someone comment if this makes any sense under VMware?
Thanks,
Steve

In the other direction, the NAS would also use the firewall as its gateway to reach your PC. And, of course, if you use it to route, the firewall would need a default gateway to the Internet. You have the option of routing directly on the bridge, e.g. use a static route on your PC to route to the NAS through the firewall. If it's not routing, you'll likely need to provide more detailed information.
I use bridges for everything, as I can conveniently assign interfaces to whatever bridge I need them on at any given time, with no address or rule changes. It's not for everyone, but it works.
