Hello All,
In my most recent attempt to traverse the AWS world, I am attempting to set up a site-to-site VPN between my AWS VPC and my on-prem network.
I followed the instructions here: Setup Site-to-Site VPN to AWS with pfSense | by Fusion | Medium
Nothing seems to be talking, however. I can’t ping anything internal from my EC2 instances or vice versa and the IPSec console in pfSense shows no traffic flowing
I have done the following to no avail:
- Checked security groups-I have an inboud allow all rule from my local subnet
- Checked route tables-route propogation is enabled, but routes are not propogating.
- Checked the tunnel status from the console, and both tunnels show as up
- Checked the IPSec firewall rule on pfSense to verify that traffic was allowed in/out to/from AWS.
- Created a DHCP option set pointing name resolution to my on-prem DNS server and associated it to the VPC-I know this is a moot point to do while I have no traffic flowing across the VPN.
Nothing seems to be working, and my instances won’t connect to my on-prem DNS for resolution to resolve, and thus won’t reach the internet while the VPC is using the custom option set.
I realize how much of an idiot I sound like, and this is definitely not my first post on this forum asking for noob advice.
But I am trying to learn and would appreciate anyone that could help me out here.
