If I understand your requirements, to go out a VIP, you need to create a NAT rule where the NAT Address is the VIP's IP. There are some limitations with VIPs but they can all be NAT'd: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/What_are_Virtual_IP_Addresses? I've pretty much always used Manual Outbound NAT, so I no longer remember what's created automatically, etc. E.G., when I want to send my desktop's traffic out via one of our static IP VIPs (tied to the WAN interface) instead of using the normal WAN interface's static IP, the following Outbound NAT rule takes care of it: WAN <desktop's IP> * * * <IP of VIP> * NO <description> That plus an applicable LAN rule "goes a long way." Hope that helps a little. _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
