Create a DMZ in VirtualBox using 2 pfSense VM

Post by Mayfair »

Hi all,
I am trying to create a DMZ in VirtualBox using two instences of pfSence(router/firewall). The problem I am having is two fold
1: I cant get my internal pfSence to speak with my external pfSence.
2: I cant get my internal LAN traffic to see my internal pfSence WAN interface or external pfSence interfaces.

My setup:
External pfSense
Adapter 1 is bridged to host NIC in VirtualBox this is WAN port
Adapter 2 is set to Internal in VirtualBox network name DMZ ip:192.168.20.1

Internal pfSense
Adapter 1 is set to Internal in VirtualBox network name DMZ ip:192.168.20.2 WAN in pf
Adapter 2 is set to Internal in VirtualBox network name testnet ip:192.168.1.1 LAN in pf

I would like the 192.168.20 network to be my dmz. My goal is to put some other servers like snort in this network.
