      Hi all,

      I followed this guide to get my server on pfsense and client on mikrotik setup,
      https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=108627.0
      and I can ping the pfsense network from the mikrotik side no problem, (client to server) but I cannot seem to ping back in the other direction even though the routes are clearly there? any clues?

      sounds like possibly a rule on the mikrotik side that only allows originated traffic or something?

        The problem was the client specific override haad the wrong CN so it wasnt matching the iroute command.

        fixed!
