Deploying new firewall in a business environment...

Hey everyone. We are looking at deploying a pfSense firewall into a business environment within the next couple weeks. We had a firewall a while back but, at this point, it is best to start from scratch.

Our goal is to just block the outside world from getting in. A couple questions I have is:

  • Is there any software I should consider that would give me a general overview of what ports to open to the WAN? We dont care too much about blocking anything on our LAN (right now at least) but want to make sure everything can go out that needs to.

  • Is this mostly a "deploy and pray" situation where we just have to put it into service and then open up ports as needed?

Thanks!
