How do I spoof an IP address between to internal LANs?

Not sure if that's the right question in the subject, but I have my two internal LANs, LAN and GUEST_LAN (WiFi only) and I'd like to be able to access the AP on the GUEST_LAN from the main LAN. I added a rule to allow the traffic but unfortunately the AP is refusing the connection outside of it's own subnet so I can't connect. On my old UTM I was able to assign an IP and a rule that would make the connection, which kind of worked.


What's the best way to do this with OPNsense? The AP blocks access to the GUI from WiFi connected devices, but as it's the only wired device (it's directly connected to the firewall) I can't easily plug in another device to access it.

You can use a source NAT to do that (in this case the AP will see the IP of the Firewall)

Thanks, I'll give that a go tonight.
