        @oba Redirect target IP should be your game server, not LAN Address. Change Type to Single Host and Address to your game server's IP address.

            @oba UDP ports are stateless and will always appear to be closed. Try your game. If it works, great. If it doesn't, check your firewall logs to see if anything is being blocked. Do a packet capture (Diagnostics - Packet Capture) on pfSense LAN to verify the forwarded packets are leaving the interface for your game server.

              You realise the game must be running when you test that?

              The external test can't see the port forward on the firewall it only sees the target device.

                      @oba That's not a static IP, that's a DHCP reservation. A static IP would be if you manually configured the game server to use a specific IP address instead of getting one from DHCP.

                      Your game server is working now?

                          DHCP Static Mapping is how pfSense refers to that. But we knew what you meant. 😉
