        IOW, you are censoring information in a way that makes the information to get lost and any advise impossible.

          Ahhh, gotcha. OK, the DMZ is on a 192.168.200.x/24 subnet. I'm restricted by corporate policy in giving out the other subnet information. Let me know if this helps.

            BTW, moderators….I understand that this is probably no longer a NAT issue. Please feel free to move to an appropriate routing board.

                That is the LAN interface IP address that I neglected to put back in the schematic. It's on my corporate network, on a totally different network than my DMZ network and the last octet is .7

                    So your web server is what amounts to your transit network?

                    If you need a downstream router from your edge, then that needs to have a transit.

                      Correct, the entire 192.168.200 subnet is a transit network. I don't understand your point about the downstream router. There is indeed a upstream and downstream network on either side of the Edge Firewall and on my Corporate Network. My question is specifically about the web server in the 192 subnet. If I make the default gateway on that box point toward the PFsense at 192.168.200.2 I can poll the server internally but not externally through the 1:1 NAT I've setup on the Edge PFsense. If I point the webserver toward the PFSense at 192.168.200.1 I can access the server through the 1:1 NAT on the Edge PFsense but can't access anything on that box from the Trust Firewall. Everytime the logs are littered with TCP:S which leads me to believe….I don't know what to believe at this point.

                        hosts do not sit on a transit!!!  If they do they need to have host routing that tells them where to go to get to what.. But in general there should really never be a host on a transit network..

                        Hang your webserver off a different segment than your transit network off your edge router/firewall.

                          Maybe I misunderstood what you were saying about a transit network. Are you saying I can't setup a design like this on my network?
