OpenVPN Stops working
-
You're using the same network for local network and address pool, that is not going to work (or may work until something breaks because of conflicts in address spaces). Make up some private address space networks for the address pools (for example 10.10.5.0/24 and 10.10.6.0/24) that do not overlap with the LAN address spaces.

Hi!
Nope it's not the same fx. 10.11.150.0/24 and 10.11.15.0/24
-
Ok sorry, you were just masking the addresses in a way that it looked like they were the same 8) Btw, no need to mask private addresses in screenshots, nobody will be able to use them anyway since they are private to your own network.
-
Ok, no problem!
I'll keep that in mind. -
One thing came to my mind, have you tried with UDP instead of TCP? UDP is potentially more secure (with tls-auth key) and faster.
-
Thanks!
No I haven't tried that, and I'm not so sure that it's the problem with ipconfig.
Do you think that I should try it? -
Ok I forgot about those ifconfig errors… I would redo the tunnels from scratch, first delete both of them and then reboot the firewall to make sure nothing is left dangling behind and then recreate them with the same details and then see if it starts working.

Thanks m8!
I will try this, but I can't do it until tomorrow (it's 19:11 here and I'm not a work)
I suppose that it will take some days to see any results, but I'll be back! -
Hi again!
After I deleted the settings and rebooted, I configurerd it again with the same settings.
It's still working after nearly 3 weeks, so I hope that this was the solution.Thanks to kpa and GruensFroeschli for helping me!!!

Hi folks!
Same problem again, I haven't done anything with the FW since my last post.
So my solution now is to remove one instance of OpenVPN and only use one.I have another PfSense with OpenVPN at home that has been working with one instance since march this year.
So it could be a limit in OpenVPN, and hopefully it will be solved in 1.2.1 or 1.3.
