        I used the PFsense tutorial on the NordVpn website ,.. i can't give a direct link now but willing to search for it if needed...

        P2P SSL/TLS as far as i can remember

          @DenBeiren it is called "Policy based Routing". You can read more about it here.

              @Bob-Dig i think i found how to configure it,.. but how can i configure for example a "group" of IP's so i only need to put 1 rule in the LAN part of the firewall rules?

              Or do i configure one rule for every client?

              Not a network expert,.. sorry,..

                @DenBeiren You can use aliases for that.

                  He mentioned NordVpn so it is a "privacy VPN".

                    NordVPN is a provider, not a type of VPN.
                    Maybe IPSec, OpenVPN, WG,...
                    Not all supports policy routing.

                      Should it make a difference? Once a VPN is connected, it's just another IP route, no different than any other point to point link.

                      PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
                      i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
                      UniFi AC-Lite access point

                      I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

                        I think i got it figured out and configured correctly...
                        How can i check this in an easy way? within PFsense?
                        Or any other solutions?

                          @DenBeiren Use a webservice like https://www.whatismyip.com/ on every host I guess.
