parablazer Hello all, I am running OpenVPN on a pfsense router, and I can connect to the VPN from a remote laptop. However I cannot connect or ping any computers on the local network. My tunnel network is 10.30.3.0/24, and my local network is on 10.30.1.0. Now when setting up the VPN through the wizard I set my local ipv4 network as 10.36.0.0/22 so It should have access to all subs from .1.0 to .3.0, but no dice. I can connect to the VPN and can ping the router but I cannot ping any computer on the network. Thank you for the help in advance.
parablazer I see what you are talking about, I tried 10.30.1.0/24 as well with no affect. I was under the impression that it needed access to both IP addresses on the .3.0 and the .1.0 subnet, which is why I chose 10.30.0.0/22. I was not clear. My local network address pool is 10.30.1.0/24, this is for all the computers on my network. When setting up the openVPN I set the IPv4 Local network(s) as 10.30.0.0/22 giving me available IP addresses of 10.30.0.1 - 10.30.3.254. That would cover both my local network (10.30.1.0/24) and my tunnel network for the VPN 10.30.3.0/24. Sorry for not being clear.
TiTex it was clear the first time too but seems like you've made a typo 10.36.0.0 you need to allow the traffic from pfsense firewall rules page like from vpn network -> lan network , beside that check your NAT rules which i would switch from automatically generated to manually and set up the rules as i want them.
pjkemp what netmask should be used to configure the VPN to access 192.168.2.0 from 192.168.3.0? I cannot also get local traffic to work with the netmask of 255.255.255.0 I'm a networking newbie so this might be obvious to most, but not to me... thanks Phil
