set up port forwarding
-
Hello I am struggling with create my port forwarding in the vlan I created in order to be able to create my game server and other services
-
@carlosRamos Are you forwarding from your VLAN to LAN?
-
@SteveITS hello so I have been port forwarding from interface wan to destination Lan and then specific IP of the machine inside the vlan
-
@carlosRamos Typically, from the Internet that would be:
Interface: WAN
Destination: WAN Address
Destination port: 80
Redirect Target IP: IP-IN-VLAN
Redirect Target port: 80See image at https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/nat/port-forwards.html#adding-port-forwards

@SteveITS I had like that and when I was testing in pfsense was saying that the port wasn't connected, I have been trying now for about a week and it seems to be very simple but I am new to networking and I want to learn the hosting of things
-
@carlosRamos Is there a software firewall on your server?
I have to leave but read through: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/nat-port-forwards.html
-
@SteveITS all is being handled by pfsense I had pihole and traefik but had to reinstall pfsense and since then still haven't turned them on while trying to set this right

@carlosRamos said in set up port forwarding:
from interface wan to destination Lan and then specific IP
As you sure that is how you did it, in which case you need to change destination to WAN address instead. Otherwise there is no difference port forwarding to a device on a VLAN or the LAN. Just use whatever IP the target server has...
It might be easier to assist if you could provide some pictures showing your rules.
