      I've been playing with Hyper-v and was able to get the 2.0 beta setup so that it can get an ip from my physical pfsense box and then let the other test VMs communicate with the world.  I set up the virtual pfsense to have a static route to the physical pfsense's subnet and that works just fine, i'm just trying to see if I can get the physical pfsense's subnet to communicate with the virtual pfsense subnet now.  Essentially, my VMs can ping physical computers on another subnet but not the other way around.

      The physical pfsense box (192.168.1.0/24) gave an ip to the pfsense VM (192.168.1.220) so I tried binding the route to that.
      Virtual pfsense is 192.168.2.1/24 so the route was anything to 192.168.2.0/24 -> 192.168.1.220.

      Was there anything I missed?  I'm pretty sure if I switch this over to the virtual pfsense and eliminate the physical box I wont even need this ability, its more of a curiosity than anything.

      Thanks!
