    hey guys,

    this should be a straight-forward routing problem. here's the setup:

    pfsense = 192.168.1.1

    pfsense –-- host 192.168.1.100
                  |
                  --router 192.168.1.106 ------ other network 192.168.2.0/24

    i added this static route in pfsense:

    route add -net 192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.106

    pfsense can get to the 192.168.2.x network by using this static route

    the problem is that the host cannot. i can add a static route in the host to get to 192.168.2.0 but then every host that needs this network will have to do this. i want all network hosts to have pfsense forward the traffic.

    in a tcpdump i see the traffic destined from the host to the .2 network, it comes into pfsense and then disappears. i'm guessing it's going out one of the WAN connections. i am not seeing drops in the firewall logs.

    any ideas?

      Add the static route via the gui and not on the console.
      Under advanced activate the checkbox "disable firewall rules for traffic on the same interface"
      (or something like that, i dont remember how exactly it's called)

      We do what we must, because we can.
