   Ahhh pfsense, the God of all firewalls (been using it for years).  It might   
   look like your looping in, but in reality pfsense is just cheating much like a   
   hosts entry.  When you try to go to your outside ip, pfsense just keeps the   
   traffic on the lan interface and doesn't pass it to the wan side, that and   
   using your port forwarding table it makes all the magic happen.
