Title: Can't ping firewall from LAN
Post by: zizka on May 31, 2017, 11:42:28 pm
Hi, I have fresh install of opnsense and I cannot ping LAN interface from the LAN network. I can open web interface. I've checked logs and there is no entry that the ICMP would be blocked. Do I have to enable it somewhere?

I do have the same issue.

Interestingly enough I can ping the firewall while it is rebooting for a couple of times, then I receive "Request timed out."

Cheers,
Markus

For what it is worth, after a couple of minutes the "request timed out" changed to:

Code: [Select]
C:\Windows\system32>ping 192.168.10.1

Pinging 192.168.10.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 62.155.240.203: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 62.155.240.203: Destination host unreachable.

62.155.240.203 is my WAN2 gateway, this looks like some sort of bug.

Cheers,
Markus

Hi

Isn't the default lan up 192.168.1.1 ? Not 192.168.10.1

Thanks

Yes, but not in my environment.

Ok, no probs, just looks like the traffic is being routed out the external interface. I had an issue similar when I restored a cofig, I think this was an issue with the remote acls not being in place (downloaded) straight after the restore. Unfortunately can't remember exactly what I did to fix it now. Have flipped between opnsense and pfsense at least 10 times this week testing things

rhyse, well I suspected some configuration error as well.

I was doing a clean install already but restored my configuration from backup.

Looks like I need to set things up from scratch to check if the problem persists.
Would have been great if there was another solution, though.

Don't want to give up the switch from pfSense yet.
