Access OpenVPn Site to Site Network via OpenVPN Client
-
Hi Everyone,
i've an routing issue with my pfsense box. I've configurend an OpenVPN server with which i can access my local network and the IPSec sites. So far so good. I also got OpenVPN Site-to-Site Connections with other remote locations. Now my question is: How can I access these remote networks via my OpenVPN Client? Thanks.

Whatever networks you want your clients to have access to… push that route to your clients via the advanced config.
e.g. if the remote network is 192.168.100.0/24 use:
push "route 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0"
-
the remote network is 192.168.4.0/24.
the network between the two OPenVPN sites is 10.104.10.0/24
I've added 'push "route 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0";' to my VPN config but i can't access the remote network. Any ideas?

Your OpenVPN "road warrior" clients will know how to reach 192.168.4.0/24 - but the router at the other end of the site-to-site link (where 192.168.4.0/24 is) needs to know how to route back. Let's say the whole network chain is:
(192.168.22.0/24 road warrior OpenVPN) <-> Router A <-> (10.104.10.1 server to 10.104.10.2 client site-to-site OpenVPN) - Router B <-> (192.168.4.0/24 remote network)
Then the Router A OpenVPN site-to-site server needs:
push "route 192.168.22.0 255.255.255.0"Then Router B will be told the path back to 192.168.22.0/24.
And always make sure that the firewall rules on OpenVPN are open enough to permit traffic to/from all these subnets.
