      @antibiotic said in VPN client:

      did but not working

      What does this mean?
      No access to the internet?
      Wrong WAN IP?

      Please give details!

          Please post Status > Gateways.
          You may hide your WAN gw.

              Well, the VPN gateway is not the default gateway. I assume, the connection is established, so there must be something wrong in the VPN client settings.
              Can you post the "Tunnel Settings" section, please?

                  Remove the check at "Don't pull routes". It prohibits that the client can set the default route to the VPN provider.

                    @viragomann Ops now start working))) Thanks you for assistance. But default gateway still my ISP provider( Status gateway), is it normally? Second question can I use squid proxy with VPN client for caching web or will not any profit or will not work? Should I remove in firewall LAN settings rule (Default allow LAN IPv4 to any rule)

                      I think so. As far as I know, the default route is splited into two parts from OpenVPN, 0.0.0.0/1 and 128.0.0.0/1. So it's not determined as default route by pfSense.

                      See Diagnostic > routes

                      Second question can I use squid proxy with VPN client for caching web or will not any profit or will not work?

                      I don't use squid, so don't know. But I think, why not, it should be doable.

                          Don't know, whats the suppose of your "local subnets" alias.
                          At the moment the default allow rule would pass any traffic with different source than "local subnets".

                          A different source could be the case if you have a router within your local network like a VPN endpoint, which passes traffic trough.
                          But where will it get to? Since you obviously have a single LAN subnet, which might be included in the local subnets alias, the traffic could be go to the WAN or VPN at its best, but would fail then, since it is not natted (Outbound NAT source).
