Netgate SG-3100 LAN ports cannot go through LAN Gateway.
-
@johnpoz Sorry, the wifi access point with IP address 192.168.30.14. My IP settings are: LAN 192.168.1.1/24, WAN static IP from IPS, Wirelessnetwork 192.168.30.1/24,
OpenVPN 192.168.70.1/24 -
Ok great - now lets see you validate that your clients are seeing the correct mac for pfsense lan interface.. You show pfsense log handing them IP address?
Lets see your switch config in your pfsense, and lets see your interface assignments.
-
@johnpoz Only one Win10 computer connect to LAN1 prot. It received correct IP address as 192.168.1.100. But it can't ping to 192.168.1.1
And I can see the correct IP, MAC and computer name in pfSense DHCP leases, but the online status is offline. -
@johnpoz The switch is LAN1 active with default config. The interface assignments are
-
maybe some antivirus/firewall on that windows 10 machine that can block it?
is the network set as public instead of private ? -

but the online status is offline.
That means it can not get dns..
Well if you can see the correct mac and get an IP - then yeah I would think something wrong on the machine itself if plugged directly into the 3100 switch ports, and nothing else connected. Simple enough to sniff on pfsense - while your pinging, so you see the pings or not?
-
@johnpoz I disabled all firewalls in Win10 computer and still can't ping. And no I can't see any pings or traffics from win10 computer to pfSense in firewall logs.
-
Hmm, curious. Are the switch settings in the SG-3100 still at their defaults?
Can you ping out from pfSense to the Windows host on LAN?

@stephenw10 Yes, the switch settings for SG-3100 are their defaults. And no I can't ping Windows host from pfSense (connection timed out.)
-
Hmm, sure behaves like a subnet conflict, like there is something else there responding as 192.168.1.1. If that was the case I would expect to see a load of errors in the system log though.
Try running a packet capture on the LAN from Diag > Packet capture whilst pinging from the Windows host. Do you see the pings arriving?

@stephenw10 I also did try to change IP address for LAN to 192.168.10.1. And Windows computer get correct IP from DHCP 192.168.10.100. But still can't ping LAN.
I will try to run packet capture on Monday and see what will happen. Thank you so much. -
I also found a very strange thing that when I connect Win10 computer to WirelessNetwork port, it gets correct IP address and gateway
But it also can ping LAN 192.168.1.1
Even I have this rule in WirelessNetwork
Also when I tried to get route from 192.168.30.52 to 192.168.1.1 in Win10 computer
It seems like it access 192.168.1.1 directly not through it's gateway 192.168.30.1
Can anyone help to explain these weird phenomenon? Maybe by fixing this will fix the LAN ports can't reach LAN gateway problem. Thanks. -
Not necessarily.
192.168.1.1 is still only one hop away since that address exists on the same hop you reach at 192.168.30.1. It is free to respond to a traceroute using that address.
-
@Derelict Thank you very much for trace-route. But why can I ping 192.168.1.1 from WirelessNetwork. I think anything from WirelessNetwork net to LAN net should be blocked by default.
-
Well, if you want to BLOCK traffic on from Wireless network to LAN net then BLOCK it. Don't block traffic with a pass rule.
Add a rule above what you have that blocks traffic to destination LAN net above what you have and see if the behavior changes.
-
@Derelict Great, thank you. I created a BLOCK rule and it's working.
Now I am backing LAN ports can't reach LAN gateway problem. Looks like fixing problems with WirelessNetwork doesn't fix LAN net.
-
@stephenw10 I connect one of the Win10 computer to LAN1 port and Switch setting is here:
It's getting correct IP address from LAN DHCP 192.168.1.115, but is't offline
I started Packet capture on LAN interface for IPv4 only.
Looks like LAN can receive from Win10 computer but never reply. -
Ok that is good info, now lets see your actual switch config.
-
@johnpoz Sorry I am new to pfSense. What is actual switch config and how to view it? Thanks.

Someday people will listen.
