Installing pfSense Community Edition 2.5.2 firewall on ESXi VM
In preparation for a demo environment, I needed to provision a firewall to provide internet access to the network. I decided to use the (free) pfSense Community Edition FreeBSD firewall inside of a VMware Virtual Machine.
In this video guide, I show how to install, configure, and deploy a simple pfSense firewall appliance in the virtual environment.

If he chose PFSense, listen up guys. You found a live one. It's tough to beat PFSense with the PF Firewall, integrations with CARP for load balancing, etc. In fact I would encourage him to do one with CARP and demonstrate load balancing and another with 2FA.
You make this easy thanks
Awesome video! More PfSense stuff 😀
