Running Layer 2 Bridge behind pfSense firewall not working !
Posted: Tue May 23, 2017 11:08 am
Hi,
I have been using Softether for 4 years using the Site to Site cascade connection and local bridge set at both location and it work as expected like a Layer 2 bridge. Both site use consumer Soho routers.
I recently replaced the Soho router at the Server site and started using a pfSense Router/ Firewall with the same port forwarded. The VPN is able to connect but it does not function correctly. Some of the network PC will not show up. I cant ping some machines but can ping other.
It seems I need to set up some route or setting on the pfsense. Both the softether Server and Bridge machines have not changed in any way.
Thank you
