# About
This repository includes my notes on enabling a true bridge mode setup with AT&T U-Verse and pfSense. This method utilizes [netgraph](https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?netgraph(4)) which is a graph based kernel networking subsystem of FreeBSD. This low-level solution was required to account for the unique issues surrounding bridging 802.1X traffic and tagging a VLAN with an id of 0. I've tested and confirmed this setup works with AT&T U-Verse Internet on the ARRIS NVG589 and BGW210-700 residential gateways (probably others too). For Pace 5268AC, see [issue #5](https://github.com/aus/pfatt/issues/5).

There are a few other methods to accomplish true bridge mode, so be sure to see what easiest for you. True Bridge Mode is also possible in a Linux via ebtables or using hardware with a VLAN swap trick. For me, I was not using a Linux-based router and the VLAN swap did not seem to work for me.
