Multiple WAN IP Issue with Vmware pfsense **fixed**

[everyonelovescheese]

Hi all

I am tearing my hair out at an issue I am having.

My configuration is as follows:

Router in bridge mode –> Physical nic on ESX 4.1 server --> Virtual switch 0 (External switch) --> PFsense wan interface .

I have a 8 external IP's that are "routed" to me (ie not in line)

for example:

78.111.8.96
78.111.8.98
78.111.8.100
78.111.8.104
78.111.8.106
etc

I can only get the PFsense to respond on the primary wan interface, any additional IP's I setup as a proxy arp addresses do not respond.

I can set the wan address to any of my ip's and it responds.

Any ideas? I am trying to virtualise my firewall but am hitting this roadblock.

Thanks all in advance.

Also, Promiscuous mode is enabled on the Vswitch

Upgrading to 2.0 and selecting "other" virtual ip setting has resolved this problem. FYI
