First of all, am a pfsense and AWS noobie, and this is my first big task on either system.
After creating a Site-to-site vpn between my PFsense andAWS instance, i can see the connections is stablished but no traffic is being send over the tunnel.
The configuration used:
- pfsense public ip: XX.XXX.XXX.XXX
- AWS public ip: YY.YYY.YYY.YYY
- AWS vpc network: 10.50.0.0/16
- my vpn network: 10.8.252.0/24
- my local network: 10.8.240.0/20
Here you can see the connection stablished from the pfsense side: pfsense pfsense 2
The AWS side of the tunnel: AWS
I have 2 VMs running on each side of the VPN and try to ping each other, with no success
My tests were:
- after trying to ping between the 2 ends of the vpn, its not successfull
- trying a traceroute on each end, both end reach the router (pfsence and AWS border) but no traffic. So i tried to set a default route on each end to ensure the connection, still nothing.
- recreated the connections by trying different ip ranges, same problem.
What am i doing wrong? Can you help me with this?
thanks in advance. AWS Padawan
