Endian behind a pfsense
Hello all,
I'm doing some tests in my lab and found a very weird problem. I have two servers: one has pfsense and it is my gateway to the internet. The second one is a Endian Community 2.5.1 configured as a gateway. PFSENSE is the only one with two networks: one is connected to my lan and the other one is my cable modem.
The problems is every time I add the pfsense ip as the default gateway in Endian, pfsense starts to block traffic that comes from endian to my workstation(from where I am accessing endian web interface). I send a packet to endian. Endian replies it, but it replies through its default gateway - pfsense. Hence I lose access to endian web interface. If I restore endian to its factory configuration, or if I delete the default gateway, I get the access back.

My question here is why endian, when configured on gateway mode, is sending all the traffic through its default gateway - pfsense - if both endian and my workstation are on the same network? Have anyone had luck configuring a endian, as a gateway, behind a pfsense?
