Two subnets, one pfsense box, no cups.
-
I'd like to setup pfsense as a firewall box for my two networks. They're configured as such:
DSL connection
|
pfsense box
|
192.168.0.x network
|
cisco layer 2 switch
|
192.168.1.x networkI'd like to be able to reach systems on the 192.168.1.x network from the 192.168.0.x network. However, when the gateway is configured to the pfsense box, they don't see each other. I understand WHY it happens, just wondering what I need to configure on the pfsense box to use it as a gateway and still reach the 1.x network.

So you have 2 subnets in your LAN. The best practice to handle this is VLAN:
-
Create 2 VLANs on your switch
-
Create those 2 VLANs on your pfSense and the pfSense will be the default gateway for your 2 subnet
-
Configure rules as you wish on pfSense
That's it…
