    The mail server (exchange 2019) is behind pfsense, the way it's setup, my mx is pointing at duo circle (primary scannig and queue in case of server failure) then it sends it to my exchange server if i enable pfblocker duocircle gives me connection refused (network erre) on numerous emails, the odd part is......... the same IP on the pfblocker will show as pass or fail, I do not use dnsbl, just ip In my pf logs when i do add that ip to my pass list the emails coming from that ip flow through problem is.....There's a sh**** load of them.... I know.... gotta do it

I'm using 2.4.5_1 You should see exactly the same screens as user @Gertjan posted earlier. This basic menu and screen layout has not changed for several pfSense versions.

    @wmheath586 you might also want to drill down further to the MAC address tables in your router. If you are using a managed switch you should be able to telnet into your router and inspect the MAC address table. This would be relevant if you are running multiple VMs and have left the MAC addresses at their defaults.

    abrupt power loss and UFS has always been bad mix.. You should be on a ups for sure to prevent such events. ZFS is better at handling them from my understanding, but would still suggest ups. I recently changed to using zfs in the lastest release of pfsense. But I have personally not tested abruptly removing power ;) And have no plans of doing that either - better to make sure it doesn't happen then to test what happens when it does if you ask me ;)

    @alanhjames check and see if your gateway is in the 169.254.x.x range. if it is, go back to 2.5.0 to fix. I hear there is a patch for 2.5.1 to fix as well, but do not know where that is.

    Well not by anything that counts! But, OK, not in the way 169.254 is non-routable. Anyway the fact RFC1918 IP destinations are sent out of the WAN is not a problem and is required in some situations. Steve

    Yup, that. Or have a transport subnet between the two routers with static routes over it so each has a route to the subnets on the other. That could be a separate VLAN between them. 'Two routers, one subnet' is almost always a bad idea. You can work around it with outbound NAT rules like that but it's much cleaner to avoid it. Steve

    Figured it out… In case someone runs into the same issue: After finding this reddit post, I tried to power down the modem only, while leaving my SG-1100 on. And that did the trick for me, pfsense could finally pick up the IP for my WAN. Take that with a grain of salt though, 'cause I'm 90% sure that's the first thing I tried, so it could be a coincidence and some cache cleared somewhere or something else? ‍️ Something to try if you get stuck like me though… Thanks guys!!

    @lousylucky The ICMP replies you can see in the WAN capture might be the gateway monitoring from pfSense. There is nothing redirected to the Proxmox IP without any DNAT rule. The second line in the capture screenshot shows that the packets go out with the LAN address and the Outbound NAT screen shows no rule. So for sure, there is nothing translated when packets go out on WAN and therefor if you set the rule on Proxmox for the LAN subnet, ping to public IPs will work. @lousylucky said in Can ping Internet from Pfsense but cannot from LAN: I can't get access to the internet (but as we can see data are going to the internet and stopped on pfsense) Where do you think to see that? pfSense should add outbound NAT rules automatically for internal networks to interfaces which have a gateway defined. A assume the Proxmox IP is set as gateway in the WAN interface settings, cause of the gateway monitoring, but check it again, please. Then go to the outbound NAT, select "automatic rule generation" and hit save and check if an auto-rule is generated. If not switch to the hybrid mode and re-enable the manual rule.
