So you are trying to ping out to the Internet from the internal network and traffic isn't going out?
ipv4 default 178.215.11.1 UGS 5590 1500 igb0 OPT1_2Provider ipv4 127.0.0.1 link#7 UH 394 16384 lo0 ipv4 178.215.11.0/25 link#3 U 2527 1500 igb0 OPT1_2Provider ipv4 178.215.11.10 link#3 UHS 0 16384 lo0 ipv4 192.168.1.0/24 link#1 U 955 1500 bce0 LAN ipv4 192.168.1.3 link#1 UHS 0 16384 lo0 ipv4 192.168.2.0/24 link#4 U 11 1500 igb1 OPT2_2Provider_LAN ipv4 192.168.2.1 link#4 UHS 0 16384 lo0
What's the "WAN" interface configured as: DHCP/Static?
Why didn't you just disable the onboard NICs in the BIOS/UEFI?That way they won't even be detected by the OS.
Even so, I just only configure the 2 ports I use on my 4 port firewall. The other 2 are just left alone and not assigned.0 is my WAN and 1 is my LAN, other 2 ports are just unassigned.
I see where you're going at, but it feels like you are overthinking things.Why not the first WAN/LAN bundle on the onboard NICs (assuming you have at least two onboard NICs) and the second bundle on OPT1 and OPT2, and then use OPT3 and OPT4 for connecting the second node?
