[pfSense] server load balancing config for VIP?

[jschmidt]

I'm trying to replace a single server on a 1:1 NAT to a pair of VM's 
using the pfSense load balancer.

Going "by the book", I created the pool, then the virtual server.
As I already had the VIP set up for the previous 1:1 NAT, I left the 
VIP and removed the 1:1 NAT mapping.
I then created an alias for the pair of internal hosts and removed the 
old rule to the single server.
Lastly, I created a WAN rule with the new alias as the destination.

The virtual server status seems happy; both hosts show 'Online', but 
no traffic flows to either of the hosts from outside.
Grasping at straws, I created another WAN rule to the outside VIP, 
still nothing.

Did I miss a step, or is the load balancer not designed to work on 
anything but pfSense's outside IP (as opposed to another one of my /29 
IP's)?
