      thank you for your response. i did what you said but its not working. can you verify i did it correctly

      System > Routing > Gateways
      i added 192.168.9.1 (this is the subnet pfsense is sending out to sophos wan)
      i selected OPT1 as the interface
      6fd44400-3e25-4454-a165-6088eadf77a2-image.png

      then in Static Routes
      i put 192.168.0.0/24 as this is the local lan that sophos gives out to computers

        You have to enter the IP of Sophos here. Not really clear which one this is from your description.

          the IP of sophos is 192.168.0.1 (or router is accessed via 192.168.0.254)
          however when trying both of this i get this error

            You need to enter the IP which is facing to pfSense's OPT1 interface.

              when i do that (192.168.9.10) it doesnt work.

              pfsense is the first connection and sophos is BEHIND pfsense.
              OPT1 from pfsense gives internet to sophos wan

                but from computers on pfsense i can NOT connect to sophos 192.168.0.1

                How are these computers connected to pfSense? I assumed to LAN.
                Can you provide a drawing of your network to shed some light on this?

                    from OPT1 in pfsense, it gives an IP of 192.168.9.10 into the WAN of Sophos

                      So you only have to add the gateway with 192.168.9.10 and then a route for 192.168.0.0/24 using this gateway.

                      If it doesn't work the access is possibly blocked by the computers behind the Sophos. You may have to allow it on their firewalls.
                      Also you have to ensure that the Sophos passes the access.
