Incoming traffic passing through wrong interface
-
So currently this is my setup as follows:
WAN
LAN
OPT1
OPT2 (OpenVPN)
I have squid proxy setup to pass all proxy traffic through OPT2/openvpn and that is working fine, but for some reason, some other traffic (Jdownloader, downloading a file from a particular site, other sites work fine) from a device that has no proxy setup would be passing through traffic using the OPT2 interface which steals the bandwidth of my VPN. Why would this happen? I don't have too much experience on pfsense so I apologize for the lack of in-depth explanation and knowledge.
Also, would it be possible to restrict OPT2 to only allow traffic from/to squid?
Thanks!

Are you running squid in transparent mode or explicit mode? Transparent mode will capture all web traffic from the interfaces you tell it to listen on.

@KOM Thanks for the reply! That solved the problem!
