''Note: The default LAN address was changed to 192.168.100.1 in order to avoid any potential conflicts with the internal network that is behind pfSense.''
== pfSense ==
Follow one of the many guides out there. It can be tricky to work out which interface is which, so plug one in, configure it at the initial console based interface setup stage, give it an IPv4 address from your LAN range and set the mask. Then try and ping it after putting another address from the range temporarily on a PC or whatever. If it doesn't work then move the LAN cable into another NIC and see if that works. Once LAN is sorted, fire up a browser and point it at the LAN address and carry on the configuration from there. Username: admin, password: pfsense. I recommend you move the web GUI port to another port and enable SSL. There's a built in certificate generator so there is no excuse.
The default firewall settings do not allow inbound access at all (for any protocol). Previous version of pfSense 2.1.2 also used to just discard [[IPv6]] traffic whatever its direction, but this is not true anymore and it should now be processed similarly to IPv4 (firewall rules, etc). However, this is not always the case when doing an upgrade, so it is worthwhile to check that setting.
That setting is available in the page "System: Advanced: Networking":
