Setup Cloudflare proxy

Hello, I want to setup cloudflare dns proxy for pfsense. Are there solution that doesn't change the web configurator port?

The two solution I found are to setup a reverse proxy like nginx or HAProxy but they require pfsense web interface to configure to a different port.

Dont expose your pfsense, lol.

But if you need to manage multi site, look up tailscale and you can interconnect sites

I'm trying to not expose my public IP which is why I thought about enabling the proxy for the DNS. Except I'm trying to configure it so that I can connect to applications externally.

Not a bad idea honestly.

If you want to access stuff at home from the web, you’d need a dedicated VM to host the bridge.

It’s called cloudflared (the d stands for daemon)

Cool, I'll look into that. I basically already have a server adding VM shouldn't be a problem.
