Description

the 'pass out' rules such as:

pass out route-to ( em1 9.2.2.1 ) from 9.2.3.17 to !9.2.2.0/21 keep state allow-opts label "let out anything from firewall host itself"

Break connectivity from the firewall itself to any networks reachable via a static route on a WAN for traffic initiated from the firewall itself.

For example if you add a static route in the above scenario pointing 1.0.0.0/24 to 9.2.3.20, traffic initiated from the firewall to that destination will go to 9.2.2.1, not 9.2.3.20.
