      So I have the following problem:

      I have a Pfsense on a site on which an Openvpn server is running. (Sharedkey). And on the other side a Pfsense on which a ovpn client is running. And the connection etc. works really well, exactly as it should BUT after the client has connected to the server I can no longer reach the website of the PFSENSE.... (OPENVPN SERVER)

      I have already tried to make an ANY TO ANY RULE WHICH HAS NOT HELPED.

      ALSO THE ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS ON THE SERVER:
      route-nopull
      route 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
      DO NOT HELP...

      PLS HELP ME.

      Thank you

        Check the "Remote Network" in the server settings. It is possibly overlapping you local networks. Or maybe you inserted your local networks into the wrong box.

          In my opinion this should not be a problem, my config there looks something like this:

          Local Network: 195.20.x.x/32
          Remote Network: 172.16.30.0/24
          Tunnel Network: 10.0.0.0/24

            @viragomann Can it be a problem if I have only a WAN interface?

              I think after some googling and a few coffees I found my solution: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/127814/pfsense-only-openvpn-server-with-only-single-interface-wan

              I haven't tested it yet, but it must be almost this problem.

              Thank you!
