NAT reflection from host with forwarded port
-
external IP = 1.2.3.4
internal IP = 192.168.1.2I have NAT reflection enabled and port 1999 forwarded from PFSense router to internal IP
this works fine for a secondary host on the LAN, from host 192.168.1.3 I can
telnet 1.2.3.4 1999
and it connects
but this does not work from the host at internal IP, from host 192.168.1.2 I can not telnet successfully to 1.2.3.4 port 1999
Is there anyway to make this work?

weird…
it just started working. I turned on NAT reflection but initially (as I described) it did not work from the host machine that the port was getting redirected to. now it does.
