Description

Configuration:

1)IX2 and DMZ interfaces are bridged (192.168.168.0/24)
2)Filtering enabled on members of the bridge
net.link.bridge.pfil_member=1
net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge=0
3)The ethernet rules are set to not pass the ARP from any to any, of the members of the bridge.

Result:

PC1 (192.168.168.12) requested the ARP for PC2 (192.168.168.10) and received the reply, but didn't receive an ARP reply from the gateway, so the rules cut traffic from the interface of pfSense but not inside the bridge broadcast.
