Steve,
You really should not be running 1.0.1 anymore for production. There
have been literally thousands of bugs fixed (including a number of them
within the VPN implementations) and pfSense has had RCs out for quite
some time. Before you go too far down this road, you should really upgrade.

Hi!
\\ pfSense v1.0.1
We’re having a VPN appliance thrust upon us by our newly acquired (!)
parent company, in order to provide site-to-site connectivity between
“us & them”.
To reach the parent company’s remote LANs at head-office I think I
need to add static routes on our pfSense box pointing to the locally
hosted VPN appliance which will then encrypt traffic destined to the
parent co’s network ranges?
Thus;
pfSense > Static Routes:
Interface Network Gateway
LAN 10.1.0.0/16 192.168.1.253
Where “LAN” is the name of one of our local interfaces, 10.1.0.0/16
the remote network and 192.168.1.253 the address of the VPN alliance.
Do people think I’m on the right track with all this?
In readiness for the VPN box arriving I’ve actually put some static
routes in place and attempted traceroute to an address on one of the
remote networks from a machine on our LAN interface which the static
route is setup on.
Strangely though the output from traceroute shows packets attempting
to leave the building via our standard ADSL feed like anything else
and not trying to go via 192.168.1.253 the address of the soon to be
added VPN box. Is that what people would expect? The machine I’m
trying to trace from is definitely on the pfSense interface called
“LAN” where I created the static route.
I’m confused…
Many thanks,
Steve
