Okay, it does Proxy ARP. My error. I have multiple addresses I need to NAT through this.
It is a block of 8 IPs from Qwest and I can use 5 for me and one is the gateway. The others are the network and the b-cast as usual. I have tried CARP and before that 'Other'. I only have the one pfSense firewall.

I've explained the differences before, but I'll do it again here. CARP is primarily used for high availability when you have multiple firewalls in a cluster. With that said I recommend it over proxy arp as if you ever go to a cluster config you'll have to convert anyway. Proxy ARP is primarily for when you have a single firewall and multiple addresses that need to be NAT'd through it. "Other" is for when you have a subnet routed to your firewall - ie. not the same subnet the firewall is on usually (although with PPPoE it may be). The IPs are always seen at your firewall and you just need pfSense to recognize that it should allow you to do something with them. --Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
