[SOLVED] Can't ping IP in virtual IP subnet, from other subnet on different interface
-
I have a virtual IP address like this (IF_EIGHT is assigned to a VLAN):
From pfSense, I can ping a device with an IP address in the virtual IP subnet, on the IF_EIGHT VLAN:
And I can ping the virtual IP from a workstation in a different subnet, connected to a different interface (LAN). But ping attempts for the device in the virtual IP subnet timeout:
The interface to which the virtual IP is associated has an any-to-any rule like this:
The LAN interface has a similar rule.
Any suggestions? I'm somewhat tired. Maybe I missed something obvious...

Probably something wrong with the network settings on that VLAN.What is the VLAN endpoint? A switch or is the device directly connected?
Check the network setting on the device for correct gateway and network mask.

@viragomann That triggered something in this tired brain. :)
I want to access and reconfigure the device (I'm not it's original admin) with IP 10.0.5.251 for a different subnet. The device is statically configured and from a previous packet capture, it appeared that it is configured for a default gateway of 10.0.5.1. After changing the virtual IP to 10.0.5.1, I can ping/access the device.
Thank you!
