configuring-pfsense-firewall-rules

configuring-pfsense-firewall-rules is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Youngmaidainon/Agent-Level-Up. It costs 88 tokens per session (3,276 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of configuring-pfsense-firewall-rules, MIT.

A guide to configuring pfSense, a firewall platform, to control traffic between networks and expose selected internal services safely. It covers access rules, NAT, VPNs, network segmentation, and traffic shaping.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create VLAN and firewall rules, configure IPsec or OpenVPN tunnels, forward ports to internal services, and manage quality of service.
Why use it?
It helps prevent unwanted connections between zones such as internal, guest, DMZ, and IoT networks. It also provides a structured way to manage port forwarding, remote access, and bandwidth limits.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

configuring-pfsense-firewall-rules scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Configuring pfSense Firewall Rules

When to Use

  • Deploying a perimeter or internal firewall to segment and protect network zones (DMZ, internal, guest, IoT)
  • Creating granular access control rules to restrict traffic between VLANs and network segments
  • Configuring NAT rules for port forwarding to internal services exposed to the internet
  • Setting up site-to-site or remote access VPN tunnels using IPsec or OpenVPN
  • Implementing traffic shaping and bandwidth management for quality-of-service requirements

Do not use as a substitute for host-based firewalls on individual systems, for SSL/TLS deep packet inspection without dedicated hardware acceleration, or as the sole security control without complementary IDS/IPS.

Prerequisites

  • pfSense 2.7+ installed on dedicated hardware or virtual machine with at least two network interfaces
  • Access to the pfSense WebConfigurator (default: https://192.168.1.1)
  • Network topology diagram showing all interfaces, VLANs, and desired traffic flow
  • DNS and DHCP configuration planned for each network zone
  • Understanding of TCP/IP, NAT, and stateful firewall concepts

Workflow

Step 1: Configure Network Interfaces and VLANs

Access the pfSense WebConfigurator and define interfaces:

Navigate: Interfaces > Assignments

WAN Interface (igb0):
  - Type: DHCP or Static IP from ISP
  - Block private networks: Enabled
  - Block bogon networks: Enabled

LAN Interface (igb1):
  - IPv4: 10.10.1.1/24
  - Description: CORPORATE_LAN

Create VLANs:
  Navigate: Interfaces > VLANs > Add
  - VLAN 10 on igb1: DMZ (10.10.10.1/24)
  - VLAN 20 on igb1: SERVERS (10.10.20.1/24)
  - VLAN 30 on igb1: GUEST (10.10.30.1/24)
  - VLAN 40 on igb1: IOT (10.10.40.1/24)

Assign VLANs:
  Navigate: Interfaces > Assignments > Add each VLAN
  Enable each interface and assign the gateway IP

Step 2: Configure DHCP and DNS for Each Zone

Navigate: Services > DHCP Server

CORPORATE_LAN (10.10.1.0/24):
  Range: 10.10.1.100 - 10.10.1.200
  DNS: 10.10.20.10 (internal DNS server)
  Gateway: 10.10.1.1

DMZ (10.10.10.0/24):
  Range: 10.10.10.100 - 10.10.10.200
  DNS: 10.10.20.10
  Gateway: 10.10.10.1

GUEST (10.10.30.0/24):
  Range: 10.10.30.100 - 10.10.30.200
  DNS: 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8 (public DNS only)
  Gateway: 10.10.30.1

Navigate: Services > DNS Resolver
  Enable DNS Resolver on all interfaces except GUEST
  Enable DNSSEC
  Configure forwarding to upstream DNS servers
