Static Port Oubound NAT not working [it's working]
-
Not sure what I'm missing here…
I've turned on manual outbound NAT because I want static port mapping on one of our subnets. NAT is working great but it's still randomizing the ports.
See attached screen shot (second rule for the 10.11.0.0 network).
When I show states it's still showing entries like this:
10.11.0.154:64033 -> public.wan.address:64033 -> 64.12.25.191:443So I assume it's still randomizing ports.
What am I missing?

10.11.0.154:64033 -> public.wan.address:64033 -> 64.12.25.191:443Where do you see randomization?
Your client initiates a connection from 10.11.0.154:64033.
The pfSense uses the same port on the outside public.wan.address:64033. (<– The same as on the client)
The connection goes to it's destination 64.12.25.191:443. -
Seconded. It looks like it's doing exactly what it is supposed to be doing!

Looks like you're right. Sorry about the confusion!
I had assumed it wasn't working because the desired behavior (allowing some gaming consoles behind the pfsense box to nat properly) wasn't working. It turned out to be a problem with allowing multicast traffic on the subnet for UPnP.
Thanks for your help.
