Virtual Switch Advice?

Post by wardh »

Hi,

I wanted to get some configuration advice in regrads to Virtuatlization station.

I want to a qnap TS-251 - which has dual network ports and dual hard disks.

What I want to do is to use the virtualization station and have it be my
firwall appliance with using pfSense. So here is the config I want to go with


LAN devices <--> [NAS Device] <-- Internet

So I want to be able the lan devices to see the NAS and browse the internet.

The bit that is throwing me is how I to configure the Virtual switch.

So can this configuration work? And how can should I configure the Virtual Switch.

Any other advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ward.
