Hello,

   So, it seems you are configuring as such:

LAN1: 10.aaa.bbb.ccc/8

LAN2: 10.xxx.yyy.zzz/8

This is not right, since /8 means a netmask of 255.0.0.0, making the network 
portion of each subnet only the first octet... thus the same subnet.  Two 
devices with configured with the same subnet, and on two different physical 
networks will not work.

You should try a netmask of 255.128.0.0, or /9 (assuming you really need all 
those IPs on each network).  That will correct differentiate the subnets and 
allow routing to occur ;)

We can get into separating your LANs to disallow your desired access after this 
is working.

Thanks,
Adrian

Subject: [pfSense-discussion] WAN LAN1 and LAN2 (OPT1)

Hi

I have been trying to setup a WAN and two LAN.  (3 NIC's)

I want LAN1 to be able to access LAN2 but not the other way around.  The idea 
is that LAN1 is less public than LAN2.

i.e. visitors can connect to the "Public" LAN2 and browse the Internet etc 
while not having any access to LAN1

LAN 2 will have a LAN printer on it, as an example, which can receive print 
jobs from both LAN1 and LAN2.

WAN is a static IP to Cable.

LAN1 is using 10.xxx.yyy.zzz 8 and OPT was intended to use 10.aaa.bbb.ccc 8 
however enabling this seems to make it all fall over, ie 
I lose Internet connection from LAN things become unresponsive.

As an aside I tried editing /conf/config.xml however it would not save from the 
terminal window, does one have rights to edit the 
config there?  I was using the ee editor.

Has anyone done this sort of thing and what am I missing to get it working?

In anticipation many thanks indeed.

Kind regards
David
