Title: Can't ping or connect from firewall [SOLVED]
Post by: gbr on January 14, 2020, 07:57:54 PM

Hi,

I'm testing OPNSense, and am having an issue.

From a machine inside the firewall, I can ping 8.8.8.8 and get a response. A traceroute shows me going through the opnsense firewall.

When I login to the firewall, I can ping the internal network, but I can't ping anything outsize. a ping 8.8.8.8 never gets a response. Traceroute also fails. Anyconnection from the firewall to the WAN fails, including update checks from opnsense itself.

Any ideas on what the issue is?

Gerald

check on the floating fw rules if you have "let out anything from firewall host itself" enabled

This has become an issue beyond not fetching upgrades, etc. I can't connect with OpenVPN, since the firewall can't talk back.

I'm going to go through and compare my pfSense rules (working) with my OPNSense rules.

Solved.

I have 2 virtual IPs, and I gave them default gateways. They didn't need them. Once I removed them, everything started working.
