You can run pfsense in a VM, and the GUI is rather easy. VLANs are configured as separate interfaces. So once you configure which VLANs are which, your NOC monkey can simply go to the firewall and edit each VLANs separate firewall rules. The multiple Phase 2 in a single Phase 1 was added to version
