Manual Outbound NAT rule generation not automatically populated with Automatic
-
pfSense 2.1.5-RELEASE (amd64)
Today I accessed the Outbound NAT page and set it to "Manual Outbound NAT rule generation".
I expected that the settings would be populated with the equivalent of the automatic rules.
Instead, the manual rules are the old from my previous LAN configuration (BTW it was 192.168.1.0/24 net; now I'm using 172.16.35.0/24).
Deleting all the manual rules and switching back and forth from Automatic to manual didin't populated any rule.
???

You should be able to switch to Manual, delete all the "old" manual rules that were in there, apply it, switch to Automatic, apply, switch back to Manual and the Automatic rules will be populated into the Manual page, ready for you to do whatever with it and Apply.
Sounds like that did not quite happen for you?
PS: In 2.2-BETA onward it is much nicer - you can have hybrid mode where it generates the automatic rules on-the-fly and you add some manual NAT rules just for the extra things you need.

For a reason that I don't know, NAT reflection was disabled. When I enabled it, the Outbound rules came back.
Why?
