Virtual IP/NAT/Virtual Machine

[dsnyc]

I am running OPNsense on a physical appliance. My HYPER-V Server NIC connect to the OPNsense firewall. Running on HYPER-V is 1 virtual machine also running OPNSense. I need to assign a static WAN IP to the WAN interface of the OPNsense virtual machine. I cannot figure out how to get this working. I have setup Virtual IP and NAT and firewall rules, but cannot reach the WAN IP of the OPNsense virtual machine.

I need to assign a static WAN IP to the WAN interface of the OPNsense virtual machine.

I have setup Virtual IP and NAT and firewall rules, but cannot reach the WAN IP of the OPNsense virtual machine.

Why use the Virtual IP for WAN ?!

You can simply configure the WAN IP Address in the WAN Interface Settings ?!

The HYPER-V NIC that connects to the physical opensense firewall is assigned a LAN IP of 192.168.251.1 for example. This gives the HYPER-V host access to the Internet. The HYPER-V Opensense VM has the same HYPER-V NIC connected as it's WAN interface. I need to be able to have traffic to the Virtual IP to go to the WAN IP of the HYPER-V Virtual Machine Opensense. Not sure how to do this.
