      You can use whatever you want.. I use 2 different ones for tcp or udp connections I use

      NO TCP / 443 10.0.200.0/24 pfsense tcp
      NO UDP / 1194 10.0.8.0/24 pfsense udp

      Just use something that is unlikely to conflict with the network segment connecting to you.

      So why i could not see any device on my network also i can't ping any device except my pfsense ?

      i have a rule like your rule on my WAN and LAN

        Are we to just guess your setup?  For all I know you have host firewalls blocking ping.  What does could not see mean?  Are you talking like a windows browse list - thats not going to happen over different segments and a nat.  You could run a wins server if you want to have browselists across segments.

        For all we know you have 192.168.1.0/24 on your pfsense lan side and remote network is also 192.168.1.0/24 – are you sending your route, is the client getting the route?

        Post up your openvpn config, did you do a traceroute from the client that could not ping your pfsense box?  Is he sending the traffic down the tunnel?

          tunnel network : 192.168.10.0/24
          my lan:192.168.1.0/24

          after connecting to my network i got 192.168.10.6 (windows told me that )

          after that i can ping only pfsense box

          tell me exactly what are you looking about openvpn confi because there are many fields with vpn confi .

          Also about i could't see any device i mean at least i ping them (my devices:pritner,computers,servers)
          and sharing files .

          i hope what i told you to be helpful .

          thank you .

            And where are you connecting from?  What is that network?

            Post up output of route print after you connect.

            Do a traceroute to the IP your trying to ping.

            So what if there are multiple fields, here attached is mine.. And then the client config from client export.  Just snipped out part of public IP for privacy.

                  And what part do you not understand about this???

                  WARNING: potential route subnet conflict between **local LAN [192.168.1.0[/b]/255.255.255.0] and **remote VPN [192.168.1.0[/b]/255.255.255.0]

                  Your networks on both sides are the SAME!!!!  NOT going to work!!

                  You have

                  192.168.1.0/24 –- tunnel --- 192.168.1.0/24

                  Does not work like that..  Even if client that is directly connected to the tunnel sends his traffic down the tunnel.  And a client on the vpn side sees the traffic - its going to be from a 192.168.1.0 address, never going to send it back to pfsense because that is the vpn boxes LOCAL network, no need to talk to pfsense.

                  You need this

                  192.168.A.0/24 –- tunnel --- 192.168.B.0/24

                  You can not have the same network on both sides of a tunnel and expect it to work without doing some fancy NATing of the connection..  If your remote network is 192.168.1.0, make your local network 192.168.72.0/24 or something - that is unlikely to be used anywhere that would be remote into your network.****

                    Hmm also, so your pfsense box default gateway for clients on vpn side?  If so then road warrior that uses the tunnel IP as its source should be able to talk to clients on the vpn side even with a dupe IP.

                    Site to site would be a major issue! But if the box on the vpn side is not using pfsense as default gateway - then again your not going to be able to talk..

                    So I notice you point dns to 192.168.1.1, but in your address bar your access pfsense at 192.168.1.254..  So this box your trying to talk to at 192.168.1.1 in your traceroute - is his default gateway off 192.168.1.0/24 the pfsense box at 192.168.1.254?

                    What is this 192.168.1.1 box?  What is his default gateway?

                      Look

                      my remote network (my office) 192.168.1.0/24
                      DNS,DHCP server                    192.168.1.1
                      Default gateway                      192.168.1.254 (pfsense box)

                      Tunnel network (as you saw before) 192.168.1.200.0/24

                      my local network (my house) 192.168.10.0/24
                      DNS,DHCP server                192.168.10.1
                      Default gateway                  192.168.10.1 (a gateway , there is no a pfsense box)

                      with that settings should be able to see all devices on the remote network ? (because i will try them tonight )

                      thank you

                        Yes there should be no reason why you can not access stuff on the remote network, unless they are running host firewalls?

                        If youh have problems, please show your connection info and route print.  And traceroute

                            Hi…also nothing happen and as usual i could ping only pfsense box and i could't see any device on the remote network...(i forget to what you said to me about print route command but tonight i will post it here)

                            but i want to ask you : what rules need i to and on which will i apply them (WAN,LAN,vpnServer) ?

                            thank you .

                              You shouldn't need any special rules - so unless you have changed the defaults your fine..  Did you run the openvpn wizard so it created your openvpn rules… here are my rules.

                              Now I did open up my lan rule to have * source vs lan net, but I don't think you really need to do that..  I had that as test I think for something else.  While at work today I will change that and verify access to lan, etc.

                              And you would need Wan rule to allow your openvpn connection - but your stating that your connecting, so I have to assume you have that rule in place or you would never connect.

                              To be honest, you run the wizard for the openvpn and put in the info and your done!  You should not be having so many problems.

                                Hi…i could ping only linux machines (from my house) but i could't see them (i mean : start logo,computer,network,here there is no any device a printer a server...etc,only my machine .)

                                and (from my office) i could ping that machine on my network (my house) from only linux machines

                                and please take a look below :

                                from my house,the output of the route print command :

                                  "but i could't see them "

                                  And when do you think linux machines are going to show up in a windows browse list??  Are the running samba and participating in that nonsense?

                                  If you can ping 1 machine on your work network from your vpn client, then you have access to the network - other machine not resolving or not answering ping is unlikely to have anything to do with the vpn connection.. More like firewall blocking it at the host or maybe its OFF? ;)  As to resolving via host name only, your not pointing at pfsense for dns - so what does that IP your pointing to for dns run.  Query it directly for hosts you want resolve?  Do they resolve?

                                  If you want  boxes to show up in windows browse list across segments then your going to have to run wins!  And even if on same network – it can take 45 minutes for a browselist to populate..

                                  I would suggest you read up on how windows browselist work -- and again they have NOTHING to do with network access, file sharing or name resolution - NOTHING!  Its a BS little list that is not real time, is not very stable and does not work across network segments, etc. etc..

                                  Troubleshooting Computer Browsing on SOHO Networks with Microsoft Windows

                                  Pfsense and openvpn have nothing to do with this - and your not pointing to pfsense for your name resolution for your vpn clients, so it has nothing to do with that.

                                  You can ping a machine across your vpn connection - therefore your vpn is UP!!  There is NO point to the browselist in the first place, use name resolution to resolve your computer names be it dns, wins or broadcast which is not going to work in your current setup.  You don't know the names of the machines you need to access?  Then what the hell your accessing the network in the first place for??

                                  But sure if you want to get the browselist to work across segments then your going to have to run wins, and understand how it works.  Good luck, its a pointless endeavor ;)

                                  If you wanted the network browse list to work, you would have to create a bridged vpn where your road warrior got an IP on your lan and then browselist would work.. But it would most likely take at min 15 minutes to start to show anything, upwards of 45 minutes.  I would assume your box thinks its the master browser for the segment it came up on, and whatever your workgroup name is.

                                  Why do you think you need or even want a browselist?  Now what you can do it query your work networks browse master for a list.

                                  So for example using browstat, don't believe it will work on 7x64.  You can do a browstat dumpnet and get your transports, one would be your vpn device, then you use that to query the browselist on your work network...

                                  List of transports currently bound to the browser

                                  1 \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{46B7FF42-B5F2-44F2-9EAE-1F0BAF7B4932}
                                      2 \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{791A8563-34BD-4681-A0F6-281494D295C8}

                                  You can see which one it would be by mac, so I have highlighted the mac portions

                                  Ethernet adapter ovpn:

                                  Those are the 4 boxes on in my home network that are participating in the browselist.  No its not listing my linux boxes, they don't have samba installed - no its not listing pfsense, etc. etc.

                                  I know that \storage is my browse master, since I have setup my network that way.  Not really a fan of the browselist, just don't see the point of it.  But there is always a way to skin the cat..  Just not seeing why it matter if you can browse your remote network?

                                        Do you printers have a gateway set?  Most likely not would be my bet.  The windows 7 firewall by default blocks ping would be my bet as well.  Kind of hard to answer a ping that is from a different network without a gateway.

                                        If you can ping 1 box on your network, then clearly your vpn is up.  What settings to you have on your windows firewall.  Can you ping your windows 7 boxes from other machine on the local network?  If so check that their firewalls allow ping from networks other than the local one.

                                          Look my machines firewall is disable but there is a kaspersky program.

                                          Yes i can ping windows machines from other .

                                            Well check it for firewall – what part do you not understand that your tunnel is up.. Why would pfsense allow traffic from linux boxes but not windows boxes?

                                            So if you can ping 1 box inside your network, and others don't respond - then its something on those machines.
