And, yes: Please bring back VIP Mode=Other to the UI.

The official documentation for a transparent filtering bridge is here: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/transparent_bridge.html

Oh yes :D Tis I, once again!

After staring at that page for so long I discovered this:
- This page is a Deja-Vu!
- I followed these steps to the character and ended up with toast routing.
- The steps, now, are outdated and do not represent current UI design/pages.
- Specifically, and since 2017 when I first read it, the system tunable instructions actually block routing (because there is no such thing as a Bridge interface to use in Firewall/Rules)

..which makes my setup unique and superior ;P

Looking forward for this plugin.

I have exactly the same problem/use case as you described + as well a problem with Steam play between PC and TV.
This plugin looks like exactly what I would need.

Fingers crossed it will be adopted by FBSD sooner than later!

You can try it now, before it becomes official (see instructions in the first post). If you do - let me know if works well for you.

Now that my certificate has expired, the WebUI is defunct.

Is there a way to disable HTTPS via the CLI so I can admin my firewalls?

But remove the IP addresses from bridge member interfaces

Looks like everyone is fixated on accusing me of doing that :D :D I just never do; this was the test setup I made *today* to see if non-transparent is going to work! And the bridge was a leftover from my prod setup!

Thank you for your dedicated help (Y)

You can use a transparently bridged setup - no idea about the shaping, though. But remove the IP addresses from bridge member interfaces. That configuration breaks multicast and that might result in all sorts of mysterious issues.

I'd rather route whenever I can instead of bridging.

The official documentation for a transparent filtering bridge is here: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/transparent_bridge.html

Kind regards,
Patrick

no VRF

That explains all! I often use overlapping destination subnets in routes to multiple gateways, for all sorts of things, not specifically in OPNSense.

Would this also mean that the transparent setup I'm using could collapse with any future upgrade?
I would rather still keep it transparent, even with this information in hand.
