Machine is reachable within it's own network but cant be reached from other networks

I have a pfSense running inside Proxmox.
I want to access the Proxmox UI through that pfSense.
I created an extra bridge on the host, assigned it an IP and hooked up pfSense to that bridge as well.
10.240.0.1 pfSense
10.240.0.2 host

Both addresses can reach other but I can not access 10.240.0.2 from another network.
However a ping to 10.240.0.1 works fine from other networks.

What am I missing? Maybe a route somewhere?

Since I can reach 10.240.0.1 from other networks I think the routing in general works. But why would it fail for the last hop if it works fine from within the 10.240 network?

Edit:
Routes on the host:

ip route
default via x.x.x.x dev vmbr0 proto kernel onlink
10.0.0.0/16 dev vmbr5 proto kernel scope link
10.10.0.0/16 dev vmbr5 proto kernel scope link
10.240.0.0/16 dev vmbr5 proto kernel scope link src 10.240.0.2

config vmbr5

auto vmbr5
iface vmbr5 inet static
	address 10.240.0.2/16
	bridge-ports none
	bridge-stp off
	bridge-fd 0

Another network behind pfSense like a VM on a different Proxmox bridge?

Maybe Proxmox blocks access from outside of its subnet.

Seems the issue was with my route.
I had to specify the ip and not only the dev
e.g. route add 10.0.0.0/16 via 10.240.0.1
