Help w/multi interface communication behind wan

iliad123

I'm new to pfsense, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

3 nics, 1=wan, 1=lan, 1=opt

lan = 192.168.1.0/24 connected to switch
opt = 192.168.2.0/24 connected to switch

lan and opt interfaces are set to static w/dhcp enabled
lan interface = 192.168.1.1
opt interface = 192.168.2.1

rules are * for lan and opt interfaces

Gateway settings set to none and internet works on both networks. dhcp works great on both.

The issue i am experiencing is that there is no communication between the networks.

Am I missing something small or large here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Screenshots of of lan and opt interfaces would be great. But for mean time do you want that pfsense act's like a router between, so it don't nat between two local interfaces?
if so, you'd have to change nat type to manual (Firewall: NAT: Outbound)

go to NAT section
select manual and click save
add new NAT rule


DO not NAT = Check this
Interface= LAN
Protocol = Any
Source = Network, put OPT subnet here
Source port = leave it empty
Destination =Network, put LAN subnet here
Destination port = leave it empty
Leave others empty
Description: opt-2-lan or something descripive

And after that create another rule which is almost the same, change Interface OPT and source and destination switch places

Finalizing touches, move this new rules at the top of the list and save/apply changes. now it should work. (I hope I didn't mess up with interfaces badly)
