Ry pinging from the wan in the pfsense gui to the next hop maybe you
have a cable wrong or something else silly that we all do sometimes

Subject: [pfSense Support] dumb routing question

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

My pfsense box does not seem willing to forward any packets.

Pretty much factory default.

It has a non-routable subnet (10.128.10.1/24) on the LAN, and a legit IP
on the WAN.

I presume NAT is configured; but unless I turn on advanced NAT, I don't
think I can see to confirm?

The pfsense box has full connectivity/routing out.  But if I merely try
to ping the very next hop from a machine on the LAN, the pfsense box
reports an ICMP unreachable. tcpdump attached to the WAN interface
doesn't see anything (i.e. the pfsense machine is not forwarding the
packets to the WAN interface, just bouncing them from the LAN
interface).

sysctl reports that forwarding is on:
net.inet.ip.forwarding: 1
net.inet.ip.fastforwarding: 1

The firewall log does not report that anything is being blocked (default
rule of allowing everything from the LAN side is in place).

How do I look to see what the NAT config is?

I can't think why else stuff is not working.

Thanks.
