Hi,

 I'm going to test pfSense before implementing it at one of our customers;

 however, I'm very short of time and have some issues I'd like to fix ASAP.

 At our customer, we will have a typical dual WAN (failover) setup,
 with a local LAN and maybe some VPN tunnel(s).

 Before setting stuff up there, I'd like to test this in our LAN (since
 we have two gateways, maybe this is 'real world' enough to convince my
 boss that a expensive commercial solution is not needed).


                                      Internet

                               |                             |
                           (our LAN 192.168.1.0/24)
                               |                             |
                    192.168.1.253        192.168.1.254
                     ---------------------------------------
                     |     wan1                     wan2     |
                     |                  pfsense                   |
                     |               lan 192.168.2.1/24   |
                     ---------------------------------------
                                              |
                                              |
                         our test LAN 192.168.2.0/24
                                  |                        |
                         test client1        test client2

 So, I'd like to deplay a (new) test LAN with a few clients, with
 pfSense attached to via LAN port. In our existing LAN pfSense will
 have two connections, each pointing to one of our gateways (see
 diagram above, I hope it makes things clear).

 My question now is: Is that possible (routing in private address
 ranges)? And if it really is (what I suspect ;), then how do I have to
 configure pfSense and the clients in the test LAN?

 Is it sufficient to point the default route (def gw) of the test
 clients at 192.168.2.1?

 Thanks very much in advance,


 Seth
