floating rule works, interface rule does not

Here's a rough diagram:
on rt-2:

OK those are the zebra routes.
What is actually in the rtr-2 routing table?
netstat -rn4 -

Ah. Multiple routers on "WAN".
It doesn't work that way by default. The WAN interface has route-to to 10.10.10.10 for anything not in the WAN network, which in that case would be 10.10.10.8/29.
Looking at
/tmp/rules.debugwould be where I would go next.Your diagram shows what looks like multiple interfaces but they are not. They are all just vmx0. That is probably the issue.
You could also remove the gateway from the pfSense 10.10.10.8/29 interface (remove the gateway setting from the interface itself) and add a gateway in System > Routing for 10.10.10.10 on WAN and set it to be the default and see if that doesn't clear things up a little. You will still have a default route that way but you won't have route-to there and won't have automatic outbound NAT for it.

I believe this is it here:
pass out route-to ( vmx0 10.10.10.10 ) from 10.10.10.11 to !10.10.10.8/29 tracker 1000010111 keep state allow-opts label "let out anything from firewall host itself"the GW already exists
And here is the interface
When I get a chance, I'll try removing it from the interface itself. I seem to remember having issues trying to remove it when I tried long ago... if all else fails, I could add more interfaces to the VM.
-
BTW, as you might have noticed already, there's multiple VLANs assigned to the vmx1 interface, while the virtual machine has two interfaces.
-
Yeah that will eliminate it from having route-to. The gateway should still be there and should still be the default gateway but double-check it.
There are ways to bypass that using floating rules but in that situation I would just get rid of the gateway on the WAN interface and see how that goes.

@acaronmd said in floating rule works, interface rule does not:
BTW, as you might have noticed already, there's multiple VLANs assigned to the vmx1 interface, while the virtual machine has two interfaces.
VLAN interfaces are discrete as far as pfSense is concerned for routing purposes.

Thanks Derelict, you nailed it. Removed the upstream GW from the WAN, everything still working OK, so then disabled the floating rule, and the interface rule is working:

glad you solved, i was following the progress myself. I find that 3D of more experienced people are always instructive
-
Thanks kiokoman, you were on the right track.

That
FIN_WAIT_2:ESTABLISHEDis still strange. Maybe something to do with the app itself though. Glad it's working.
