      I VPN in to my place of work.  I hit the internet.  My ip address seems to originate from my work place.

      Okay, Juniper VPN server, perhaps some magic there.

      I VPN to a cloud node I operate from a linux box at home, both sides running OpenVPN, and my ip address out to the internet now appears to be the address of my cloud node.

      Wonderful.

      Now, I load up OPenVPN on my pfsense box.  I verify I can connect in, but I hit the internet and I am still recognized as having my original local address.  Had a friend test from out of state, same result.

      When I run a trace from my lap top on one of the first two cases, ALL my traffic is going out encapsulated, which is what I would expect.

      When I am connected to pfSense, I only see SOME traffic being encapsulated, almost like it is being split tunneled.

      Can I configure OpenVPN on pfSense, to have all traffic on a connect come through  and appear to be originating from my in house network ?

      Thanks.

        Check "Redirect Gateway" in the OpenVPN server settings.
