Thank You So Very Much for your quick response.
You're welcome.

I am familar with firewalling, but i never done something like this.
Mabee you can give me an actual Example from my reference.
Using my networks ect.
Sure, if I had lots of free time and nothing else to do, I could probably 
write up a security policy, firewall rules, along with pretty network 
topology diagrams and so forth.  But I was up 'til 2AM doing pretty much 
just that for a client yesterday (*), and I'd rather not spend that much 
effort again today without a good cause, or at least more beer.  :-)
There is an expectation on the freebsd lists that you spend your own time 
to learn about the tasks you want to accomplish before asking other people 
to repeat what the documentation says for your own specific use case.  
("Read the docs.  Try stuff out.  Ask questions which show what you've done 
and what the specific error message or problem you have is.")
What i want to do is seperate the network's on the same wire.
Hmm.  Why do you want to put separate subnets on the same wire?

(What does that mean to you, anyway? Using the same external ISP connection? All boxes all on the same ethernet hub? Something else? Consider IPsec. :-)

(*): Client is in Denmark. They wanted stuff "urgently" by this morning their time, after getting me something to respond to yesterday at 4PM my time. Bleh, this "global outsourcing" thing really is overrated....

What i want to do in a nutshell,
Connect all stores together via fibre, and protect my HeadOffice Lan, which will now be connected to all the stores. And Have some sort of security.
