Pfsense install via ansible playbook

[rebecca acheampong]

Hello,

Please can someone help me with how to install pfsense using ansible on a remote host?

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thank you

[Dick Visser]

How would you do this without ansible?

I mean to do it with ansible. I cannot find any playbook that has been used to install pfsense already and I don't know how to do that.

No, the reason why Dick asked "how would you do this without ansible" is
because creating a playbook to do it for you is nearly always based on "what
commands *would* I run if I were to do this myself, but in fact I want ansible
to run them for me?"

Ansible is an automation tool. The first step to automating something is to
know how to do it manually.
