      1:1 NAT reflection (with multiwan) isn't working. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.

      Situation:
      3 WAN connections (all up & working)
      1:1 NAT set up for multiple IP addresses and working from outside firewall (I'm NOT using the pfSense IP for NAT)
      Port forwarding not used
      NAT reflection not working

      Tried:
      A: System / Advanced / Firewall & NAT
          NAT Reflection mode for port forwards both Pure NAT & NAT + Proxy

      B: Checking Enable NAT Reflection for 1:1 NAT & Enable automatic outbound NAT for Reflection -> connection times out

      C: Clearing Enable NAT Reflection for 1:1 NAT & Enable automatic outbound NAT for Reflection -> redirects me back to the pfSense

      Questions:

      Do I need to add any routes or rules?

      (Split DNS not ideal, and I would like to get NAT reflection working)

          I had a similar issue, and found this post helpful:

          https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=74241.0

          Needed to add a LAN->LAN rule with default gateway set (not the MultiWAN that got changes in the default lan to any rule)
