Title: Cannot route between interfaces
Post by: deanfourie on October 30, 2024, 10:32:07 AM
So i've looked everywhere, and it seems everyone keeps mentioning firewall rules,

But I cannot access a network on a different interface. The interface has a static IP address and I have set firewall rules to allow ANY to ANY for testing on both interfaces. Still I cannot ping between my LAN interface and the other interface.

If I ping a host on the other interface (other interface being not my main LAN interface) directly from OPNsense, I get replied and 0% loss.

Any ideas? Thanks

The only way i've managed to make this work is to add a gateway,

So I have the following,

Interface >> Static IP >> Gateway
Gateway

This takes up 2 ip address, one for the interface and one for the Gateway. This seems wrong but I have confirmed that this works.
