OpenVPN iOS VPN on demand
-
Hello,
i have installed pfsense, running behind another firewall.
Also configured OpenVPN with the wizard.
I can also export openvpn file for iOS client and vpn dial in is working.What i want to achieve:
VPN on demand on iOS devices. Maybe somebody has already configured this with pfsense?
And is willing to publish some instructions and or a short manual?In my opinion this will help also some other users implementing this.
Thank you
Regards

What do you mean with vpn on demand?
Start the vpn connection or don't ^^; -
Hello,
vpn on demand is the possibility to start a vpn connection when the connection is needed for accessing data on the corporate network.
for example i have an app which will connect a server in my corporate network, the iphone will start the vpn connection automatically.http://www.ios4business.com/2011/05/12/apple-ios-vpn-on-demand-explained/

Ok so this is a problem of the device you are trying to connect and doesn't really have anything to do with the server (in this case pfsense).
A short google shows this:
