      I can not ping to the server 10.1.9.42 from any computer 10.1.9.0/24

      Though win server can access the internet and ping pfsense but other computers can not ping that server.

      before deploying pfsense it was working fine.

        ….

        All windows systems behave this way : you've entered them in a 'new' network, and the system would gave asked : Public or Private network ? Your server has probably decided to enter the 'Public' mode so it won't reply on any local communication, and uses only the gateway to access the Internet.
        Check out your server.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
