      Nope, no load balancing rules

        This seems, as Ralph Wiggum might say, unpossible.
        IPSec runs in the kernel and should trump the routing table and lan rules.
        Anything strange in the IPSEC rules tab? Possibly a route on the client machine?
        Why don't you expand the phase2 to include the lan side of the firewalls and see if you can source a ping from the lan interface of one firewall to the other?

          I can confirm that I have the same issue private IP from IPSec tunnel is leaving the WAN interface.
          It is related to my other issue in the post https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=93372.0 .
          Any help is appreciated.

            Can you provide an output of setkey -PD and setkey -D

              I have one IPSec mobile tunnel (192.168.250.0/24) with 3 Phase 2 Entries (192.168.4.0/24,192.168.5.0/24,192.168.6.0/24) and one IPSec tunnel ikev1 to a pfSense 2.1.5 with a single P2 (192.168.4.0/22 <-> 172.16.0.0/15).

              The issue happens (packets leaving WAN instead of going through the tunnel) when I try to reach any client in 172.17.0.0/16, I can reach clients in the 172.16.0.0/16 range just fine.

              Best
              Sven

                I've been able to reproduce the problem now.

                Packets go outside of my WAN in this p2 mode

                SITE A = 172.31.100.1/32 (Watchguard FW)
                SITE B = 172.31.10.1/32 (pFsense 2.2.2 x64)

                Packets are routing appropriately ( not going out of the WAN) with a mis-matched configuration as such:

                SITE A = 172.31.100.1/32 (Watchguard FW)
                SITE B  = 172.31.10.0/24 (pfsense 2.2.2 x64)

                ???

                  Are you sure the problem isn't the Watchguard? Are you specifying just the IP address on the WG, or trying to use a /32 subnet? I think on the WG, you need to just put in the IP without a mask.

                    Yes the WG settings are correct.

                    Wouldn't my packets destine for SITE A, from SITE B still try to encapsulated by the pfsense firewall based on the SRC/DST headers?

                    I'd imagine the packets would not go over the tunnel if the p2 settings are incorrect , but that still should not send them over the WAN.

                      You are trying to setup transport mode or tunnel mode.

                      @voleatech
                      From the output of your setkey i see that the tunnel is being used and still do not understand your issue?!!

                          The issue is:

                          SITE A: 192.168.4.0/22
                          SITE B: 172.16.0.0/15

                          Pinging Site B in 172.17.X.X from Site A does not work.
                          The traffic leaves the WAN interface instead of going into the tunnel.

                            Well the last thing to see here is the pf rules.
                            Show me the /tmp/rules.debug if you do not want that public send it to eri at pfsense.org

                              After seeing your rules is clear, your issue is you have disabled negate rules :)

                                I just saw it myself :)
                                I have a typo in my aliases I put in a /16 instead of /12 in my private network alias for 172.16.0.0

                                Thanks for your help ermal
