      Stumped on this one even after searching the forums / Google.  Here's the setup:

      Client on 192.168.4.0/27 > pfSense2 firewall (no NAT) > pfSense1 firewall (NAT) > WAN

      pfSense2 forwards the SSPD multicast to pfSense1.  The client and pfSense1 are on different subnets.

      pfSense1 has the following miniupnpd config in /var/etc/miniupnpd.conf:

      ext_ifname=vmx0
      port=2189
      listening_ip=vmx1
      packet_log=yes
      presentation_url=https://192.168.1.1/
      uuid=b74cb48c-6d13-48de-052e-ade3d61826d
      serial=B74CB48C
      model_number=2.2.6-RELEASE
      
      allow 53-65535 192.168.4.0/27 53-65535
      deny 0-65535 0.0.0.0/0 0-65535
      enable_upnp=yes
      enable_natpmp=yes
      

      However, these warnings keep showing up in the miniupnpd log:
      SSDP packet sender 192.168.4.30:63177 not from a LAN, ignoring

      Shouldn't this work?  My allow range is specified but not working?

        You might get help over at miniupnp site..  Your listening IP is going to be the networks on that interface..  But you have downstream networks, so that source does not fall to what your listening network is..

        You might want to change your listening_ip to say 192.168.0.0/16 and see if that gets rid of the error and allows ports to be opened..
