      I'm getting nuts :)

      I'm trying to get a PAT to work from a virtual IP on an OPT interface with success but the same PAT rule on the main ip of the OPT interface works.
      1-1 nat is also not working.

      So I've an OPT interface with 3 ips.

      1 ip is used as the main and the two others are configured as Virtual IP for this interface.

      PAT : ip1 (main) => lan | works.
      PAT : ip2 (virtual ip) => lan | don't.

      pfSense limitation ?

      Best,

      edit :

      "Packet Capture" shows that the firewall receives the packets on the OPT interface but I don't see them going out on the LAN interface with the destination address translated.

        Okey… don't get it.

        I disabled "Block private networks" and it solved the problem.
        Now I re-enabled it and it still works.

        Any ideas ?

        Best,
