Multiple subnets on one interface
-
I followed a pdf doc I found to add multiple subnets to on interface by inserting the following line in the config file. <shellcmd>ifconfig vr0 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0 alias</shellcmd>.
Inset up the firewall and nat acording to the doc. this allows me to have any ip in the 192.168.x.x subnet but i have to use 192.168.0.1 for a gateway. It would seam with a mask of 255.255.0.0 that any gateway would work. I also tryed 192.168.0.0. no luck.
My outgoing nat looks like this. 10.0.0.0 is my main ip on interface.
Interface Source Source Port Destination Destination Port NAT Address NAT Port
WAN 10.0.0.0/24 * * * * *WAN 192.168.0.0/16 * * * * *
My lan firewall looks like this.
Proto Source Port Destination Port Gateway Schedule Description
* 10.0.0.1/24 * * * ** 192.168.0.0/16 * * * *
Any ideals?? THanks

What is the problem?
(Sorry it's not clear out of your description).No you cannot use 192.168.0.0 as IP for the pfSense with a netmask of /16 because this is the NetID.

I need to enable a computer to connect to the network with an ip and gateway hardcoded that is out of the subnet set on the nic. I was trying to acomplish this by setting the nic to use multiple subnet, however when I set the subnet of 192.168.0.1/16 I can have any ip in the 192.168.x.x subnet but I have to use a gateway of 192.168.0.1. If I use lets say 192.168.15.26 with a gateway of 192.168.15.1 it wont work. The main subnet on the nic is 10.0.0.1/24.
