R6260 - Port Fordwarding - With PFSENSE

Hi Guys

 

How does one setup the R6260 as a bridge to ensure that it doesn't assign IP's

 

The only thing I'm seeing is the VLAN / Bridge settings. Do I need to plug in the internet cable into 1 of the 4 ports or can I use the WLAN port for this, note internet works fine. The only thing is that this possible impacts port forwarding so wanting to set this up correctly

 

Kind Regards,
