Doing so allows pfSense to configure VLAN access to VMware. Imagine you are configuring a switch, except this one is virtual. Allowing the LAN 'port' on the switch to access all VLANs transforms it into a 'trunk' or 'tagged' VLAN port which is able to carry all VLAN data.

Probably also good to check out the CloudFlare DNS: 1.1.1.1 and the recently started Quad9 by PCH, IBM and others: 9.9.9.9 OpenDNS now supports IPv6 addresses — meaning that, by using the OpenDNS Sandbox, you’ll be able to resolve your DNS using IPv6 DNS servers.

Jan 03, 2020 · DNSSEC and DNS over TLS are security enhancements Quad9 offers that many other DNS providers do not. DNS over TLS, for example, forces your pfSense firewall (unbound resolver) to encrypt the DNS transaction as it traverses the internet; what that means is a man-in-the-middle on the internet (or a nosy upstream network provider) can’t see which hostnames you are querying and as important, no
