Re: [pfSense Support] VPN LAN TO LAN
Hi, i'm curently jammed in setting up VPN on my pfsense box been reading all the discussion it seems most have achieved a VPN configuration. I not specialise on IT pros but interested to learn. Is there anyone could please help me out in setting up VPN on my pfsense. Thanks, Joseph.

Example Active Directory, File Server, administrative applications This is one of the main uses we make of pfSense. I have two offices, a data center, and two home offices all linked together via IPsec VPN and pfSense at each point. The offices and data center use fixed endpoints (fixed IP) and the home offices use client mode. In client mode you can only make the connections outbound so if the IPsec circuit is not up, you cannot force it up from the main office, for example. Only a client at the home office can cause it to start up. This is easily worked around using appropriate keepalive settings. You can control what traffic flows to where via the firewall rules under the firewall's IPsec tab. We just leave it open. Over the vpn hops, we run mostly internal HTTP servers, SIP, ssh, and IMAP for mail access to the main office. If you have enough bandwidth to support what your purpose is, pfSense will not be the bottleneck. It is rock solid reliable and has been for years. You will be happy with it. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
[pfSense Support] help -- policy routing problem
hi all, i've got a serious policy routing problem that i cannot seem to overcome. the pfsense box has three interfaces: two are wan ports and one is lan -- both wan ports share the same physical media and use the same gateway. they each have a different ip address. i need to route outbound mail traffic out of one specific interface and voip out the other (among other requirements). since the gateway's are the same, and because i cannot specify the interface but only the next router, pfsense seems to choose the first/lowest interface to send mail. is there a way around this? thanks m - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

Re: [pfSense Support] help -- policy routing problem
This will not work. Both gateways are the same, which is how routing is being done. Setting up another NAT device in front of one of the WAN interfaces is a kludgy workaround. Otherwise, I'm afraid you're out of luck.

Short of an intermediate NAT device as Gary said, you have no other options with the same gateway unless you can put both IPs on one interface. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

hi all, thanks for the incredibly quick responses ... i'll ask the provider to put a second ip address on his router to get around the problem. i can't be the only one! pfsense is fantastic! cheers m - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

I think Ermal or Scott pointed out a commit a few weeks ago that ECMP was committed upstream, so it's possible that in the future, we won't be stuck with this limitation. (Which will be a very happy day indeed for many users.)
