      pfSense: 1.2.2

      I created a CARP virtual IP of 192.168.9.253 on the LAN side. From within the LAN I wanted to ping it just to prove that it responds. However, unless I ping from one of the pfSense boxes I don't get a reply back. Any ideas?

        Did you create a firewall rule to allow pings to this VIP?

        We do what we must, because we can.

          I figured out what it was, but neglected to write it down. So as a result, I have no idea what I did! :(

                I am sorry if I sounded rude. I did not mean to. I really liked your wording…

                  You weren't being rude. I didn't take it that way. I was just being silly. It helps pass the time…
