    @bjk002 said in OpenVPN routing issue with LAN: tun mode. Under OpenVPN, Client Export Utility, Advanced, Additional Configuration Options, add a line as such: push "route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0" ,where 192.168.10.0 is the network you want to allow clients access.. Apologies if I used improper terminology but this was actually LAN hosts that were routed through the OpenVPN Client tunnel could not connect to other devices on the VLAN/LAN. My solution is posted above :)

    Hi, You tried option 12 ? You'll be dealing with some sort of PHP shell scripting. See the GUI (source) how CA's and certs are generated, and then use these PHP functions to do it 'manually'. It's just an idea. Plan B : use the usual "openssl" commands as usual, and then just use PHP (see option 12) examples how to stiore them into the config.xml file so they waill be aviable to the GUI => show up over there and can get sued elsewhere in the GUI).

    @Gertjan I am running OpenSSL on my Windows development machine, not using the version on pfSense. I set up my CA long before I owned a NetGate box. I have OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020, though I've been running my private CA since OpenSSL 1.01. Lots of fixes since 1.0.2. I am using my Root CA cert to sign an Intermediate CA Cert. It is the Intermediate CA Cert that signed the pfSense cert/key. Attributes from my pfSense cert: Version V3 Signature algorithm SHA512 RSA Issuer : (me - I don't think you need these details... but if you do let me know) Valid from:‎ Saturday, ‎June ‎6, ‎2020 5:21:31 PM Valid to: ‎Sunday, ‎August ‎20, ‎2023 5:21:31 PM Subject: E = (obscured), CN = (the DNS name of my pfSense), O = (me), S = WA, C = US Public key: RSA (2048 bits) Subject & Authority Key identifier: (let me know if you need these) Public key params: 05 00 Basic Constraints:Subject Type=End Entity, Path Length Constraint=None CRL Distribution Points: lists 1 URL on my website EKU: Server Authentication (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1), IP security IKE intermediate (1.3.6.1.5.5.8.2.2) Netscape Comment: OpenSSL Generated Server Certificate Netscape Cert Type: SSL Server Authentication (40) Subject Alternative Name: (my external DNS for VPN), (repeat of CN from subject), and 2 IP addresses for the Netgate on my internal network Key Usage: Digital Signature, Key Encipherment, Key Agreement (a8) Thumbprint: (not clear you need this) That should be all you need to try to duplicate. Start with a CA key and a self-signed Cert. Then use that to sign an Intermediate cert (these are what I called CA #2 in my post). Then create a key/cert and sign it with the above attributes. Before installing on pfSense, use the GUI to generate a self-signed CA pair (CA #1 in my post).. Then create a VPN key and sign with the pfSense CA pair. Use this signed cert + key for VPN. Export client, and the router Cert should contain the CA#1 cert. Next install the CA #2 onto pfSense. I did that as a chained certificate as per pfSense docs (see: link text). Here is the relevant text from that doc page: Importing a Chained or Nested Certificate Authority If the CA has been signed by an intermediary and not directly by a root CA, it may be necessary to import both the root and the intermediate CA together in one entry, such as: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- [Subordinate/Intermediate CA certificate text] -----END CERTIFICATE----- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- [Root CA certificate text] -----END CERTIFICATE----- If you would like to save yourself the trouble of creating a CA, post a CSR in PEM format as: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST----- ... encoded data here ... -----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST----- ... and I'll sign the key, valid for 30 days, for you to test with. Let me know if you need anymore information to try to repro.

    And why didn't you put all the suggestions into practice or ask how to do before? You're going to waste our time here, dude! Don't know what's difficult here? Add the access servers tunnel network to the "Remote Networks". As you stated, the access servers tunnel network: 10.0.3.0/24 So the networks given as you stated above: @yashiharu said in How to connect to one of the VPN site then access to its other VPN sites?: mainSiteA: 192.168.1.0/24 (3 OpenVPN server) SiteB: 192.168.0.0/24 (1 OVPN client) SiteC: 192.168.2.0/24 (1 OVPN client) on site B the "IPv4 Remote Networks" box should contain 192.168.1.0/24,192.168.2.0/24,10.0.3.0/24 on site C the "IPv4 Remote Networks" box should contain 192.168.1.0/24,192.168.0.0/24,10.0.3.0/24 That's the magic.

    @ReneMG said in [SOLVED] OpenVPN do not connect when Authentication + Encryption mode is set: and then, finally, checking the parameters on the client side and setting the AES-CBC Cipher Or use the pfSense openvpn-client-export package so you can export the config based on the current server setup.

    Hi Rico, Tried anything without look. Within openvpn i can access my lan resources (connected to pfsense gateway) but i was not able to access resources inside a remote LAN (LAN part of another department not under my administration), and they are not blocking me. I pushed the route and i can see it inside my routing table, but there is no ping o DNS response Any other idea? Thanks
