      Hi,

      On pfSense is possible not use masquerade, as like iptables rules?

      For example:

      I have 2 networks and 2 nics, that are:

      1 net - 192.168.1.x
      2 net - 10.11.0.x

      Users on network 10.11 talking normally w/ 192 subnet, but pfSense translating and masquerade a unique ip address, soon each packet going from a unique ip to the outside net.

      Is there possible each traffic going to using real ip (10.11 to 196.x and not 10.11.1.1 to any 192)?

      Thanks.

        I assume you want to disable the standard NAT behaviour from LAN to WAN.

        To do this go to firewall โ€“> NAT --> outbound.
        Enable manual advanced outbound NAT.
        Now traffic will be NATed defined by how the rules below it are.
        If you delete all rule, noting will be NATed.

        We do what we must, because we can.

            Yes, you can still do port forwards with outbound NAT disabled.

                  Just a question or a issue.. I don't know.

                  Nat out works well, but I tried to test w/ ftp protocol and it continue making masquerade (nat w/ WAN ip). Soon I try to make a first rule matching this and check NO NAT, but not works too.

                  Is there any possibility to solve this issue? Is there any association w/ ftp helper?

                  Thanks one more time.
