      @johnpoz said in Subnet problem?:

      Yeah if there is a transit network connecting the L3 then no you wouldn't be asymmetrical.. But if he is going to try and leverage that 35.10 as a transit then yeah its asymmetrical.
      Ya don't put hosts on a transit... Not sure how that network came to be.. But sorry while /8 might be a work around.. Its not the correct way to fix those problems.. He needs actual transit to connect pfsense to the downstream.

      Agreed.

          First off, let me just say thank you all, for just diving head first without me having any clue what you all needed from me.

          This network was setup before anyone that works in our dept was even there over 12-13 years ago. We have upgraded equip since then and went to 10Gb routers and switch stacks for furture enhancement but not sure if anything design wise has changed, I'd have to ask our net admin. We all wear many hats, I more than anyone only because I engage in everything I can get my dirty little hands on.

          Ok so after I learned how to draw, learned what transit meant, then learned how to semi properly map things out, the consensus seems to be that the network is not as bad as originally thought by everyone "so I hope". "creating aliases for allowing and/or denying internet access for certain subnets." this works with our current setup and as far as diagnosing problems, we or I should say our net admin has never had problems doing so so far.

          Updated map. (Yes I know that 10.31.0.0/19 wireless network is huge. Did it for a reason as it is our guest network. There are only ever about 150-300 people on it at once but my thought was give them an IP and they keep it for I think 2 years. Lets us easily track mischievousness)

          I will not be making major changes until after the holiday break seeing as I am not at work to see how those changes affect anything. I do have a remote AP at my house with a VM added to our domain so I will continue working/testing other things in pfSense until i get back.
