Setting up Active Directory Authenticated VPN access using pfSense in the HomeLab – Step 3

Set up pfSense Routers

As pfSense requires a web configuration, the complete setup can not be completed until we have a Windows VM to connect to it. However, there are still some preliminary configurations on each router to ensure connectivity for all downstream devices.

We must:

  • Disable secure boot for VM
  • Install pfSense
  • Assign a WAN interface
  • Assign a LAN interface
  • Enable DHCP on LAN interface
