Can't get to backup Firewall from IPSEC
-
Hi,
I have an issue that is causing problems. I really don't fully understand the problem but will have a try. I'm very new to PFSense.
I have two pairs of pfsense firewalls. One pair in NY and one pair in Boston.
I've attached a diagram.
If I connect through the NY side, a tunnel is formed and allows me to connect to the LAN on the otherside. What it does not allow ,me to do is connect to the backup firewall.
If I then clean the SAD, I'm then able to connect.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

I would say the backup firewall is pushing the traffic through the wrong gateway/tunnel? But then clearing the SAD shouldn't make a difference?
Actually, it might matter… What version of pfSense are you running, because on the new version (2.0.2 and up i think), it actually brings down the tunnel on the backup machine, so this might be what you need.
