I have inherited a badly designed network, and have to keep it up. There's a machine running VMWare, and a pfSense VMWare appliance is acting as firewall and NAT. The network in use inside this NAT is 10.0.0.0/14. The pfSense appliance has two more network adapters, one connected to the internet, and one connected to another physical machine on a 10.139.251.104/29 network. What I am tasked with is to make that external machine visible to other virtual machines running behind pfSense. I have been banging my head against the wall, trying to figure out what sort of a rule do I need to create in pfSense and other VMS (which are running CentOS) to make this happen. Can anyone give me any ideas?

If you just need to expose some services running on the external machine then you could use Port Forwarding.

pfSense has a very straightforward web interface for doing that.

  • My problem is, how can I instruct the VMs to send packets destined for 10.139.251.107 to 10.0.0.1 (the gateway) because at the moment they don't. I have tried adding a route like this: route add -net 10.139.251.104/29 10.0.0.1 but when I try traceroute 10.139.251.107 it doesn't go through 10.0.0.1 Nov 23, 2016 at 1:19
  • Try this: route add -net 10.139.251.104 NETMASK 255.255.255.248 gw 10.0.0.1 Nov 23, 2016 at 7:18
