Rule, script, or ??? -- Need to forward all port XYZ packets
-
I have a device on one vlan/subnet that (among other things) sends udp packets to a particular port, sending to the limited broadcast address (255.255.255.255)
I need to get those packets to a specific server ip on another vlan/subnet. No need for broadcasting. No replies needed.
NAT and firewall rules don't appear to help. I assume pfSense ignores such packets at a very low level.
Is there a good (or even crufty) way to do this? Traffic is not heavy: one packet every second or two. (FWIW it is a weather station.)

Have you tried to redirect the udp packets to your intended server with a Port Forward in Firewall/NAT/Port Forward?

@dma_pf Yes. As I said "NAT and firewall rules don't seem to help."
I've done it, with logging.
At this point my initial goal is to see the packets in a log. No success to date. tcpdump easily finds them with a port filter ;)
