      Hi Guys,

      Am having problem connecting 2 pfsense machines. Here is my current setup. I am going to use this for study purposes/demo.

      pfsense_setup.JPG

      From 172.16.0.0/24 network, I can ONLY ping the ff:
      A) 172.16.0.0/24
      B) 50.0.0.1

      From 192.168.0.0/24 network, I can ONLY ping the ff:
      A) 192.168.0.0/24
      B) 50.0.0.2

      I cannot ping the 50.0.0.0 /8 network from the pfSense :(

      Do you guys know why? Thank you!

        The easy answer.. Add the Routed package on each and set it up. Make firewall rules on 50.0.0.0 both units allowing the both interface subnets from the opposite firewall.
