NAT works fine from external network, but not internal network
-
The problem I have is follows:
I set up a https server behind my pfSense. I made pfSense listen on https also. I have a NAT rule destination address WAN address destination port 443 redirects to an internal address port 443. I have an external domain name and an internal domain name, which resolves properly to the WAN address from inside the network, but if I request to this external name from the internal network I get pfSense web configurator page. How can I make it so that NAT rules are applied if the request is made to the WAN address from the internal network? When accessing from an external network I get the host I expect.

Simply change the port of web configurator

and also enable nat reflection on this nat rule.

I suspected it might have been a technical limitation. I was aware of the split DNS solution but I didn't really like it. NAT reflection is what I would prefer, cheers for the tips.
