Extending LAN Subnet Between 2 Datacenters?
-
Can anyone point me to the recommended method for extending a LAN subnet between two datacenters so they can share the same private IP address space on the LAN side of the pfSense?
Example:
192.168.1.1 LAN <–-> WAN <------> Public Internet <------> WAN <---> LAN 192.168.1.1

OpenVPN tap connection. I'd try and do without it if you could though. Why do you need the same network on each side?

We're using Hyper-V replication to replicate a bunch of VMs. It will be much more seamless if I can just power them on without altering IPs and so forth.
Does tap bridging work with 2.1? I thought 2.0 or 2.1 broke it?

I take it a nice layer 2 metro-e between the two is not an option?

That would make my life so much easier, but is not in the budget … yet.

I'm not sure what that is and what I found on Google isn't much help. Can you elaborate?

That is very, very cool. I've added it to my list to try as the first solution.
EDIT:
Wow, that was super easy and works very well. I think I'm going to use it.

Yep - Its pretty cool for what you need.
There is another guy who is trying to get 3 or 4 separate sites communicating well - For him, this is probably also the best / easiest option.
But easy is relative - Maybe he will see your post and ask your instruction.
