      I have 2 networks I want both networks to have full access to each other.
      10.10.100.0/24 on LAN (igb1)
      10.10.10.0/24 on OPT1 (igb2)

      FW rules are set:

      DHCP Servers are set:

      1fc2e571-9abb-4c3c-8d6c-3fccc2b8b2ad-image.png

      Everything else is blank (default) in the DHCP Settings for both LAN AND OPT1

      From LAN I can ping the pfsense using the IP of igb1 (10.10.100.254) or igb2 (10.10.10.254)
      From OPT1 I can ping the pfsense using the IP of igb1 (10.10.100.254) or igb2 (10.10.10.254)
      From LAN I can not ping anything on OPT1
      From OPT1 I can not ping anything on LAN

      From the pfsense I can't ping anything.
      I have re-installed pfsense from scratch with no other configurations.

      I have also done the same with LAN and a vlan tied to the LAN interface. Same results.
      Help Please
      What am I doing wrong?

      Thanks,

      -Ted

        Windows firewalls will treat anything out of subnet as "public" unless otherwise told. Can you ping a network printer or camera or other device?

          @chpalmer Let me test pinging from my linux box's instead to rule out windows.

            @G8nd0lf said in Route Traffic between 2 Interfaces or between LAN and VLAN:

            From the pfsense I can't ping anything.

            Huh? Pfsense should, unless you picked the wrong interface to ping from be using the IP address of the interface in the network/vlan - so unless your devices is blocking all ping.. It would be on the same network and windows would allow it for example.

            Curiosity question - if you just want any any rules between. Why are you creating 2 networks and why not just use lan?

              @chpalmer Sorry it took a bit to respond. But that was my problem. Thanks for the quick response and for nailing it. :)
