      Hi everyone,
          I've been trying to follow the windows guide to setup an open vpn connection between my laptop and my pfsense router.
      However when i get to the server configuration option in pfsense, I can't enter the CIDR for the local network, it just doesnt let me type anything. Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

          You're using a PSK.
          –>You have to create routes on the connecting client manually in the config file.

          The "local network" field is used to push the local subnet to connecting PKI-clients.

          We do what we must, because we can.

            Could you explain how to do that? This is my first experience with setting up any kind of VPN.
