      I have a PFsense using PPPoE to talk to an ADSL modem. I have a three bit subnet so there is no NAT. Since it is a PPP connection the WAN IP address is the same as the LAN IP address of the system (first three bytes of IPs below just for example)

      LAN
      Network: 1.0.0.160/29
      IP: 1.0.0.166

      WAN
      1.0.0.166/32

      These are public IPs, no NAT is involved.

      I have another site with a conventional NATed configuration:

      WAN (public)
      2.0.0.96/28
      IP: 2.0.0.98

      LAN (private)
      192.168.1.0/24

      I would like to join the two networks together

      1.0.0.160/28 <–> 1.0.0.166 <--> 2.0.0.98 <--> 192.168.1.0/24

      I can't get this to work. Should I be able to? Is there a wrinkle I need to be aware of?

        I have got this going now. But what confused me is the abscence of a start tunnel button. The pfsense system should be able to send a packet through the tunnel to start it.
