      Hello

      I have a small network set up as a test.

      I have a L2switch with 3 vlans (10.10.0.0,10.20.0., 10.30.0.0) that connected (tagged) with the first pfsense. This pfsense does only inter-vlan routing (10.10.0.1,10.20.0.1,10.30.0.1). The wan port is not used here. Here everything works ok. the different vlans can acces eachother etc.. . Now I have a 2nd pfsense (10.30.0.3) that has a lan port Connected to vlan3 and a wan port connected to the Internet. So I want to make sure that each vlan can acces the Internet. In pfsense 2 ,I therefore set routes to the 3 vlans: src10.10.0.0 dest: 10.30.0.1,10.20.00 => 10.30.0.1,10.30.00 => 10.30.0.1. in pfsense 1 would have a kind of default route set to pfsense 2 but I do not know how?
      when i try to make a route to pfsense 2 for example vlan 20 i cant set default gateway to 10.30.0.3(pfsense2) because its not in the same subnet.
      Does anyone know how I can solve this?

        Both pfsense's should now each others so create static routes in both of them.

            Both pfsenses should know eachothers, right.
            try with 0.0.0.0/0 mask

              Yes they need to know each other. they just need to route each other.but i'm just stuck with the vlans do need to make a route for each vlan to 10.30.0.3?

                  What if you create gateway and put pfsense rules to use that new gateway.
                  I have no lab to test that, but that might work with all vlans
