In this blog, we are going to install the pfSense firewall on a VMware workstation. If it is MAC, then VMware fusion (follow the same guide here) or VirtualBox. You could use VMware workstation pro, VirtualBox, or a Hyper-V. You can virtualize PfSense on windows in multiple ways. What if you have windows or a MAC machine, how do you virtualize PfSense on them? If you are using Linux, you can prefer the KVM method to virtualize the PfSense in your environment. However, some of you out there, may not have an old PC lying around, and if that’s the case and you wanted to start the pfSense firewall journey, the option you have is by virtualizing them. Since it is open-source, there is no cost associated with it, and you can build a zero-dollar firewall setup by using the old computer as the firewall. But once you make it up and running, it works just great. Setting up for the first time would be the difficult part for many. I have been running pfSense as my home firewall for quite some time now.
