      Hey there!

      I'm running a pfSense server as my only router. I have a couple of domains that redirect to my IP, and pfSense is forwarding that traffic to my webserver. It works just fine if an external IP uses the domain-names but when I enter the domain name from a local IP, I get redirected to the pfSense login page.

      At first it also warned me that a potential DNS Rebind Attack was happening, but I disabled DNS Rebinding Checks and now I'm at the login page.

      I think my question is:
      Do anyone of you know if it's possible to setup pfSense to always direct incoming HTTP traffic to a server regardless of the IP-address?

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          Thanks for the quick reply!
          I can't believe it was that easy, I guess I overlooked those settings!
