Firewall aliases screenshot
-
Hello Everyone,
I am new to pfsense, and really not very good at subnetting it confuses me. However I am fairly okay with firewalling/nating. I saw the screenshot of Aliases with 3 different servers in it does that mean it will forward any requests on port 80 to all of those servers? If so this would be perfect for me.
As I have 6 servers in my home lab for various reasons and projects.
Thanks in Advance,

As you didn't give us any hits about the screenshot in question there's no way for us to know ;)
That said, you can only forward a single port to a single computer. If you need to reach multiple servers you either need to use a different port for each or, if they're all accessible using HTTP you can use a reverse proxy to forward any given hostname to a certain internal IP address.

I forward (WAN side) port 80 to port server 1 port 80 (LAN side).
Port 81 goes to server 2, port 80.
Port 82 goes to server 3, port 80.
Port 443 goes to server 4, port 443.
I access all other boxes via an IPSec VPN.
