NewAlts Research Labs' virtual network
We will set up the following environment in VirtualBox:
System name: pfsense1
OS: pfSense 2.0 (FreeBSD)
Virtual disk size: 1 GB
RAM: 128
Three network adapters (Internal):
WAN = 192.168.10.1 (Int10)
LAN = 192.168.20.1 (DMZ20)
OPT1 = 192.168.30.1(DEV30)
OPT2 = NAT (This is an optional step which allows you to easily download and install the necessary packages. This adapter should be disabled ASAP.)
Installed packages:
Snort (Be sure to configure and update this.)
Strikeback (Only available in the 32-bit version of pfSense.)
Set up the DHCP server for all three interfaces.
Allow private IPs through the WAN interface.
Set up rules to allow ports 22, 80, 443, and 3306 from WAN to LAN.
Set up rules to allow ports 21, 22, 23, 25, 80, 443 from LAN to OPT1 and back.
Tip
Enabling ICMP traffic while building out the lab may assist you in troubleshooting problems. ICMP should be blocked prior to starting the fictional penetration test.
