      Hello guys.

      I setup a P2P with IPSEC phase shared, in 2 locations , is working, both sides can share data without issued.

      I was trying to test IPERF3 with both pfsense boxes:

      iperf3 -f M -s -B 192.168.9.1(pfsense_lan_ip)
      

      On the other side of the tunnel I run:

      iperf3 -c 192.168.9.1
      

      But don't show any results, I have to run the client side from a computer inside the network, I cannot run this between pfsense<-->pfsense.

      This is normal for IPSEC or I miss something?

      iperf3 between clients behind the tunnels works, between both pfsense boxes won't work.

      pfsense 2.5.2, I can run this with a VPN with Wireguard or OpenVPN without any issue.

      Any tips I will appreciated, regards!!!

        Are you able to ping between pfsenses?
        ipsec has "protected" networks that are allowed to pass.
        Perhaps this omits pfsense interface used for iperf
        iperf per se, doesnt care how the traffic passes.

            @periko Thought so.
            The issue is with ipsec configuration.
            Pls elaborate
