Chris,

Thanks for the clarification. I will be doing a 1:1 Nat for the Mail Server for sure. That seems like the best route for the Mail Server. I guess you would call it Standard NAT (TCP). Not sure exactly what you are asking specifically. Let me see if this example helps. WAN IP: 12.165.119.195 Port 80 forwards to 192.168.40.5 -- Tested and works Great Virtual IP: 12.165.119.196 Port 80 forwards to 192.168.40.6 -- Can't connect to Port 80 at all.

Nothing shows in the Logs that it was denied or anything. Maybe I just don't understand NAT / Firewalls as well as I had thought! lol I have verified the Firewall Rules, and they are allowing such traffic (I checked the box at the bottom of the NAT sceen to auto add it to the firewall). Again, I am using Proxy ARP (not sure if I should use Other) for the Virtual IP.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Nate

you can't ping virtual IP's, because they don't get bound to any NIC. Unless you do 1:1 NAT and permit ICMP to the private IP, in which case they are pingable.
what kind of NAT are you attempting on that virtual IP?

Howdy,

pfSense has been a solid firewall for home use, and now I am implementing it as a firewall at work. I have run into a snag, and not really sure what the problem is. I am running 89.2

Here is my Setup:

WAN (AT&T-T1): 12.165.119.195
LAN: 192.168.40.1

I can use NAT, and Port Forwarding. They work great and all is well when I only have one WAN IP. No Problems. So, my problems comes when I do Virtual IPs. I would like to add a second IP. I add a Virtual IP of 12.165.119.196 (Proxy ARP), and set my NAT rules up using this Virtual IP. I am unable to connect at all to this Virtual IP. I have restarted the Box, and everything. I can Ping 12.165.119.195, but can't ping my 196 address. So, it seems that the Virtual IPs are not binding to that NIC card or somthing like that.
