General Discussion / Why is this traffic blocked?
« on: July 26, 2024, 08:07:22 pm »
I just finished setting up Opnsense on a Proxmox VM with I350-T2 passthrough. WAN is plugged into igb0 and LAN is plugged into igb1. After I set all of this up I realized my google wifi mesh router with two APs won't allow me to enable bridge mode with more than one AP enabled and I need a minimum of two. I decided to try double NAT and set Opnsense LAN to 192.168.1.1 and set my google wifi router to 192.168.2.1. My google wifi router is plugged into a switch connected to igb1.
What I don't understand is why I'm seeing traffic on the 192.168.2.X subnet in my firewall log live traffic. Shouldn't everything be NAT'ed to the WAN IP of the google wifi router which is 192.168.1.102? I'm seeing my phone which is connected via wifi to the google ap only. I don't understand how this is supposed to work since I've never double NAT'ed before. If anyone knows and can help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
Also, why is this traffic blocked?
