How to setup firewall pass rule to connect between two interfaces?

I have read a lot on people saying setup pass rule. but i am struggling to implement this

I have 192.168.1.xxx and 192.168.1.2.xxx each has its own DHCP (192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1) and I want the computers on each subnet to talk to be able to see each other.

Thanks in advance

Default rules for LAN should work to get to the second subnet. If you copy the pass all rule from LAN to the second subnet then the second subnet will be able to reach LAN.

If it is still not working Id reboot the firewall and see if that doesn't shake it loose.

you know what happened. I accidentally deleted LAN interface when i was setting up the second subnet. the second subnet is on VLAN ID. so I lost the default rule. I created a pass all rule for LAN traffic only.

I take the screenshot rule is the one I need?
