pfSense & CloudStack
Hello,
Is it possible to install pfSense to a local install of Cloudstack. I have it installed on Xen right now (pfsense). I am looking for others who MAY have done this.
Looking forward to responses,
Mo

I use it this way right now:
Verizon Fios > Xen server > pfSense, which provides internet into my home.
What I would like to do is.
Verizon Fios > CloudStack > pfSense > provide internet to the home.
I understand the Virtual Router built into CS, would still do it’s thing; but I still wonder if a VM of pfsense would be possible and do what I am doing with it right now.
Perhaps, like you said a stand alone might be best.

If you want to use PFSense as a Cloudstack virtual router for your instances it will not work (though awesome idea).
It might be better to just use a standalone hypervisor.

I do, I had to get away from the verizon router; so I installed Xen Server on an old computer I had and tossed on a few VMs, including pfSense.
So I am just trying to figure out how to populate VMs with CLoudstack, whilst using pfSense.
I would assume you would need to be an advanced mode, as basic wouldn’t support it?
I’ve also considered doing a regular KVM install and doing everything command line.

Hello,
Recent FreeBSD has proper support for Xen HVM and KVM VirtIO therefore it runs nicely, not sure how old PfSense is though.
You run it on Xen or Xenserver now?
