Have you configured a NAT rule?

Subject: [pfSense] Running into some very basic problems: can't seem to get
port forwarding working ...

Hi folks:

  Have pfSense 2.0.1 stable installed on a machine we are using for testing.
2x em network ports. Have em0 configured as WAN with IP 10.100.241.121/16,
and em1 configured as LAN with IP 192.168.3.1/16.

I can reach the LAN port with ssh/others easily.  No issues.  I turned on
ICMP response on the WAN, and can ping that as well.

Ok.  Want to set up a simple external port forward from WAN->LAN (specific
IP on LAN).  Logged in through GUI, and set this up

WAN     TCP     *       *       WAN net 22 (SSH)        192.168.1.171   22
(SSH)

This host uses a different default gateway ... 192.168.1.1/16 .  I can (and
have) set up a virtual machine on the 192.168.3.0/16 net using the
3.1 machine as a gateway, and redirected ssh there.  This works, fine as it
turns out.

My question is, how (if at all) can I configure pfSense to handle the case
where it isn't the primary gateway?  That is, its being used as a router for
external traffic, but the primary gateway is on a different router.  Do I
need to add a specific route back on the client side, or is this something
pfSense can automagically handle?
