      Hi,
      I have a pfSense 2.0.1 running. My LAN is 192.168.0.x, and I need to establish an IPSec tunnel to a client's network.

      My client's remote IPs are 10.250.0.x, and he told my that I need to use source IPs of 172.27.10.x, so they can route traffic to my network.

      I configured the tunnel as requested, and was able to connect. I also set up a Virtual IP of type IP Alias with the address 172.27.10.0/24 (even though I'm not sure I need this).

      Now that I'm connected, I tried pinging a client's server from my LAN, but traffic to 10.250.0.x goes through WAN instead of going through the tunnel. Any hint on what I might be doing wrong?

        Hi

        were you able to find a solution?
        I have the same problem: a customer needs me to have a different subnet as source IPs.
        I added a Virtual IP to my LAN Interface, the tunnel is up, they can ping my Virtual IP, but I am not able to reach their remote LAN from my LAN.
        I have been trying to change the NAT rules, but without success.

        Michele
