Don't get VIP working
-
I just started with pfSense, and didn't get my other public IP's working.
In the past used a windows router, and there i entered my other 5 IP into the extended IP Config, and the old Firewall could NAT thme and Port Forward them
In pfSense, i tried to put them in VIP with Proxy ARP and other.
I also tried a simple 1:1 Nat for testing, but didn't get it working.Ma default IP is
xx.yy.169.65
the other are 169.66, 169.67, 169.68on the WAN i entered xx.yy.169.65/4 and the other with xx.yy.169.68/32
The server runs in a VMWare Server2.0 will than ported to a ESX Server
Can anybody point me to the right direction?
regards

Try it on a real box, if that works post in the virtualization forum.

Is it correct, that i set up the VIP as Other
and the main WAN as y.y.169.65/4 ? -
I doubt that your wan connection has a /4 subnet mask. That's something like 270 million addresses in your subnet. A /29 would seem more correct. xx.yy.169.64/29 would be 65-70 usable.
CARP VIPs need to be created with the correct subnet mask. e.g. xx.yy.169.66/29
Proxy ARP VIPs use a /32 mask. I think 'other' VIPs use a /32, but I haven't used them in a while. Other type VIPs may not work for you depending on how the provider routes the IPs to you. Stick with CARP or Proxy-arp unless you have a compelling reason to use other vips.
