      Ello all, i have a question. i am expereincign some confusion. maybe due to lack of sleep from statics and diff eq class or im forgetting a setting.

      Here is my setup i have made in vmplayer.

      In vmplayer i have created 4 lan segments

      UTAH-Private (ID# = 29:1F IP 192.168.1.1/24)
      NY-Private (ID# = 7E:D5 IP 192.168.2.1/24)
      UTAH-out (ID# = 29:15 IP 10.0.0.1/8)
      NY-out (ID# = 7E:CB IP 10.0.0.2/8)

      Ok, so when i created UTAH ROUTER, i put two mics in it and nic0 is UTAH-out (ID# = 29:15 IP 10.0.0.1/8)
      nic1 is UTAH-Private (ID# = 29:1F IP 192.168.1.1/24)

      the config of pfsense confirms this. Pings from inside pfsense work.

      NY ROUTER has two nics. nic0 is connected to lan segment NY-out (ID# = 7E:CB IP 10.0.0.2/8)
      and nic1 is connected to lan segment NY-Private (ID# = 7E:D5 IP 192.168.2.1/24).

      the configs confirm and pings work with in the shell.

      Ok, so i put a linux box on the private side of each router and log into the web config and turn off firewall so that i can just route.

      ok, so, here is the issue, UTAH-out can ping NY-out but UTAH-Private cant ping NY-out.

      NY-out can ping UTAH-out but NY-Private cant ping UTAH-out.

      what do i need to do to make sure pings can gofrom one private side to the other?

      Also, can pfsense run OSPF i do not want to work with RIP unless its version 2.  but i would prefere a more intelligent protocol such as OSPF

      This is a setup for my pen test lab.

      thanks

      Matt
