PF framing simple rule

I am new to this firewalls. Past three months, I have worked on OpenBSD and written few rules.
Now I started exploring FreeBSD firewall deployed with pfSense. Through pfSense, I configured
inbound rule using rdr given below.
--
The rule written in pfsense:
"rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to 10.182.1.240 port 8080 -> 192.168.56.42"
--
But it is not working.

My request is how can i write a rule which can pass internet traffic to internal machine.

Internal network address :
--------------------------
1) 1.1) em1(=192.168.56.40/24
1.2) internal machine address: 192.168.56.42 , on this ,one service is running on port: 8080
External address:
------------------
2) em0=10.182.1.240/24.

Question:
----------
How can i write a nat and rdr rules to pass traffic from external to internal using above ip address?
 
Try adding ‘pass’ between ‘rdr’ and ‘on’. Otherwise you need to ensure your other rules permit the redirected traffic flow after the address change is applied.
 
Hi all,

I created a simple pf.conf file which contains the following two rules:

Step 1
-------
pf.conf file
---------------
set skip on pfsync0
# NAT Inbound Redirects
rdr pass on em0 proto tcp from any to 10.182.1.240 port 8080 -> 192.168.56.42


Here,
1) 10.182.1.240 is ip of external interface em0, and
2) 192.168.56.40 is ip of internal interface em1 and
3) 192.168.56.42 is ip of one of the internal machine.

step 2.
--------
1. loaded them using following command
pfctl -f pf.conf

step3:
-------
1. executed pfctr -sr to see loaded rules ,but noting is displaying.It means no rules are loaded.

pls guide me how to write rules for redirecting traffic from em0 to em1 device .
thank you
 
It is Urgent.Can you help me.
Apart from this, Can anyone suggest a link which describes configuration of firewall from sending a traffic from extenal network to internal network
 
Have you asked on a pfsense forum? There may be some differences I’m unaware of.

To see rdr rules, you need to show the translation table, not the filtering table: pfctl -s nat
