Hello all,
We've been using our current pfSense install for a year now with
no major problems, except one. Our pfsense box has a cable modem on
the wan, a lan, a t1 line, and a dmz. The t1 and the dmz are bridged
together. The cable modem is the wan for the lan users. It's been
working very well. I have noticed that we can only accept pptp
connections on the wan ip address (which is dhcp). I would love to be
able to accept them on the t1 opt interface as well. Is is a know bug
to only be able to receive them on the WAN interface, any ideas on
what I'm missing if not?
You can receive on any interface, but for the reply traffic to go back
out the correct interface, you have to know which subnets will be used,
and static routes are required. What's happening now is you're
initiating communication with your OPT, and the replies are coming back
from your WAN. Obviously that's not going to work, and static routes
aren't adequate in most situations. Services running locally don't work
with OPT WANs at this time without static routes, this is a known
limitation. Services NATed or routed on OPT WANs work fine.
