Pfsense has mac A in its arp cache for 192.168.1.100. Where you also run into an issue with your auto switch idea. Done! There is no reason to want to use the same IP for different macs. Again create an alias with your 2 IPs in it, your wired IP, and your wireless IP. Different mac address should not have the same IP. Since FW rules are done on IPs it makes sense that one device with two names (two MAC addresses) should look and act as one device on the FW. And it needs to go to wireless - how is going to hand out that lease, where there is already a lease for that IP. Oh I just tried - and doesn't stop you from setting that. Setting via static assignment to MAC from pfSense.

No, but if my kid has two names, a first and a nick, I would expect the rules applied to the kid to apply regardless of which one is called. It would be just like the DHCP server handing out a previously used but currently unused IP to a new device with a new MAC because the original device is no longer said in Roku won't connect to internet if both of it's MAC addresses are assigned the same IP:Д®dit: Are you one of those people that would name all of your kids the same name ) This is Billy, and this is also Billy ) From pfSense's point of view, the Roku is only connected once - either Ethernet or wired - so it shouldn't have an issue with using the same IP. I am trying to wrap my head around why when it logically makes sense that it should. Like I said - its a bad idea to do such a thing. Only if both interfaces are trying to connect at the same time, no? if one is not active/used then the OS shouldn't/wouldn't know. I would think most OSes would scream at you for trying to set 2 different interfaces to the same IP.
