      How can I active NAT Loopback?
      For example, I forward port (from WAN) to my web server (LAN), but I can't acces to my web server from LAN, I arrive on the webgui of pfsense. It should seem like this :
      Internet –- WAN--pfsense--LAN---Web Server
                                                  + ---PC1
      This I want to do :
      Lan-->wan-->lan
      PC1              web server

          You need to also change the webgui port to use a different http port, ex 8080, or change to https. Https is better anyhow ;)

            Only if you try to access the webgui on the external IP. If you come from LAN and try to access it by it's internal IP it will still work.
