Maybe if I ask another way ... Routing issue

I have an interface on the OPNSense that is used to send/receive traffic from another network via a dedicated link to another building.

Interface is configured, gateway is set up, static route is added.  (Both sides)

One site interface IP is 192.168.30.1, the other has an interface IP of 192.168.30.2
Gateway on the .1 side is the .2 IP.
Gateway on the .2 side is the .1 IP.
The monitor IP on each is the LAN ip of the respective firewall.  (192.168.10.1 on the .1 side and 192.168.20.1 on the .2 side.)
Static routes have been added for each network -- routes for traffic to the .20/24 has been added and a route for the .10/24 has been added.

From OPNSense on the "LAN" net, I can access servers on the 192.168.30.0/24 net but not the 192.168.20.0/24 net.

When the gateways are configured, you can set up a "monitoring IP" -- it is set for the primary LAN interface IP on both sides.
OPNSense identifies the gateway as up, but the other end sees the OPNSense gateway as down.

It's like static routes are ignored on PFsense.

Do route changes require a reboot?

What settings am I missing on the OPNSense to make this work?
