    @bozo-bogd We tried setting reneg-sec on both sides to 0 but it caused the client to constant want the MFA prompt satisfied. The pings settings are already set to 0 Details from Azure. We have a CA policy that requires MFA when authenticating to the EntraID account. The Entra RADIUS VPN app is installed on our RADIUS box to interject the MFA prompt when authenticating to our local AD with the OpenVPN client. The MFA app has a limited config, with caching and renegotiation settings not being options.

    @viragomann It works! I remove the client static IP configuration from the server setup and ping works from both sides. It was quite difficult but the reason why I didn't read the documentation about s2s OpenVPN connection. Thank you!

    @ctarbet I configured the OpenVPN with OpenLdap. I had some issues regarding to setup but I found the solution: Start configuring A connection from scratch (SystemUser -> ManagerAuthentication -> Servers) - don't copy the connection! [image: 1737104274313-screenshot-from-2025-01-17-09-53-21.png] [image: 1737104283687-screenshot-from-2025-01-17-09-56-57.png] QUERY: &(objectClass=groupOfNames)(cn=vpn)(member=*) LDAP tree structure: [image: 1737104693725-screenshot-from-2025-01-17-09-59-59.png] Please take a look at the screen. This is an example of configuration, but maybe it'll help you. Good luck!

    @Dharmender-Bankal said in Can ping my entire network but can not access any server: what could be the issues? When you're on site, and if your server has a keyboard and screen : connect to it. I'll bet it has a firewall ^^ And I bet again : your server, as per security rules, only accepts connection coming from the local network it's connected to. And from no where else. Right ? Change (adapt) the server's firewall rule(s), and you'll be good. I suggest : don't open up 'from everybody' (which includes the entire Internet !), start by adding the tunnel network you are using when connected to your VPN.

    @Conger1892 said in ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED: I can access the firewall and other servers via the IP address So .... fire up a text editor and open the 'ovpn' file you've imported into your OpenVPN client app, and replace the host name that it is using, for the current WAN IP you use to connect the OpenVPN to the OpenVPN. Import this edited file. Use it ... and now it connects !? I presume that the somewhat vague error shown "ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED." measn that the tunnel couldn't create, because the IP (the host name it was using) didn't point anymore to your WAN IP (pfSEnse work) but to 'some one else'. So, by now you get it : the host name you were using in the OpenVPN client app config wasn't 'actual' anymore. So, its the "DynDNS" WAN IP updater process that stopped doing its thing. That would leave lines with errors in the (system, I guess ?) logs. I can access the firewall and other servers via the IP address Also : this means you have a VPN access, and you can access your pfSense directly using it's WAN IP ? Great that you could use that solution. A pure catastrophe from a point of security ... , but no longer via DNS resolution. What you wrote there, for me, is the origin of your your issue. Who or what makes that the host name, after resolving, point to your WAN IP ? You would say : My dyndns supplier. Then me : And who informs your dyndns that an (your WAN) IP change happened ? You would say : my pfSense. Then me : Who learned this trick you your pfSense, who set it up ? You : Me ! I would say : Great, I'm talking to the right person then. Did you start a renewal manually of your DynDNS, and checked what happened ? The DynDNS host name changed ? or not ? If you want details - the ones that will bring you to the source of the issue, check this one : [image: 1736515701279-0d68dbcd-d58f-493e-aa46-7f04adb96e0a-image.png] and renew again. Btw : my phrases are based upon what your words told me. I could be totally wrong of course, so please add more details.

    @ncohafmuta said in OpenVPN on 2.7.1 crashes on some circumstances: I'm running pfsense 2.7.1 Be aware that those who are using 2.7.1 are not the persons who visit this forum. As they would see right away that 2.7.2 was avaible. Did you test 2.7.2 ? I'd love to add more details, but 2.7.1 is more then two years old and I can't recall any related info anymore.

    Just so it's clear: OpenVPN Client Export version 1.9.5 isn't available on the 24.03 package repository. It's only available in the 24.11 package repository. No packages from the 24.11 repository should be installed on 24.03. Either upgrade to 24.11 first, or ensure the update branch is set to stay on 24.03. On the current versions that update branch doesn't automatically get set to the latest version so you'd have to go out of your way to land in this situation.

    @GuillaumeJ Try to follow the steps mentioned in their official guide for pfSense: Proton VPN over pfSense Regarding your question: Once you are in NAT > Outbound, you should go to the tab: Manual Outbound NAT rule generation. (AON - Advanced Outbound NAT) here you should see the automatic rules created. Actually I have Proton VPN over pfSense working, although I'm getting some strange random issue I'm trying to investigate. Hope it helps

    @joaobarbi said in Setup OpenVPN to redirect all traffic directly to WAN: Now, instead of routing traffic through the enterprise network, I want to use the VPN to redirect traffic directly to the WAN, bypassing the enterprise's internal network Which path though the internal network does the traffic actually take now? If you run an OpenVPN server on your firewall, routing all clients upstream traffic over it (for whatever reason..), the packets come in on the VPN interface and go out on WAN. I cannot think of any shorter path.
