24.1 Production Series / Strange disconnects when opnsense has a static route to another router
« on: March 05, 2024, 11:15:04 am »
I have created a gateway in System->Gateways with the default options for the lan interface and the ip of the other router.
It comes up as online in the gateway status.
I then create a static route for a subnet on the other side of that router with the gateway as the gateway
I can connect but the connections dies after a short while. if I add a route on the client machine to this gateway directly the connection is rock solid.
Also if I add the route to the client after a connection has frozen the connection resumes. Is there a time limit for how long opnsense will forward packets to the internal gateway for each connection?
