SOLVED Seperate IP address for individual nic

[jgreco]

Totally agree, but unless the OP gives up on the idea of using 2 separate network links or upgrades to a managed switch, I can't think of an alternative.

Already solved in #30. https://forums.freenas.org/index.ph...s-for-individual-nic.37131/page-2#post-231078

The FreeNAS box can theoretically be made to route the traffic to 192.168.2.*.

I know FreeBSD can handle routing, but trying to work that into FreeNAS? That seems like a bridge too far. (See what I did there)

Yes, I imagine it's very very difficult! Probably gigabytes of new code, arcane configuration options to set, hmmm, let me see..

edit sysctls, set: net.inet.ip.forwarding to 1

DONE

No but seriously it's really that easy. I have more questions about the NAT gateway box than the FreeBSD side of it all.

Indeed. That's why we call it routing instead.

Got any other comments about how easy things were while I was on vacation? heheh
