adding static routes for a network so it can see the internet

[robina80]

hi all,

i swear pfsense was a lot easier than opnsense adding static routes to see other networks on my vlan switch

im probably going to revert back to pfsense!!! :)

im trying to add a static network so that network gets internet access

the static network im trying to add is 172.17.1.1/24
my gateway is 10.100.1.253
my vm is 172.17.1.1
opnsense ip is 10.100.1.254
my windows pc is 10.100.1.5

on my opnsense router i can ping my vm and my vm can ping my windows pc so my interlanning network works but i cant get my vm to ping 8.8.8.8

i attach pictures and im wondering if anyone of you can help as i feel im doing everything right

You're asking for help on opnsense? Here? Why?

Nobody here is going to know anything about the problems in that area on opnsense.

@derelict i thought that aswell worth a shot

you made my mind up, going to reload pfsense on my apu machine

but normally all i do in pfsense is the following

add a gateway for my vlan switch ie my vlan switch ip on the same subnet
add a static route and set the gateway as the to the switch ip
add an alias rule for my new network
edit the network rules and add source to any so this new network can talk to toher nertworks

sorted

i deleted all the gateways/routes on the web and i added it via ssh

route add -net 172.17.1.0/24 10.100.1.253

i also added a manual outbound NAT rule for this new network and added a LAN rule for this network

Hi! I would be happy to have the details of outbound & lan rules you added (I have similar issue)
