PfSense and Ubiquiti
-
What do you know about setting up pfSense 2.4.2 VPN (OpenVPN) using Windows 2016 NPAS for RADUIS?
I tried it once already and it didn't work out well.
Thanks,

Works fine.
If you can successfully authenticate using Diagnostics > Authentication you should be able to leverage that server with OpenVPN.
-
Is there a good walk through setting it up?
The stuff I have seen pre-dates pfSense 2.3.x and server 2008.
-
Everyone's AD is different enough that making a walkthrough is pretty much useless.
General stuff though:
Create a RADIUS client in NPS for the pfSense source address and password
Set up a RADIUS Authentication server pointing to that.

How many vpn users will you have that using radius to auth makes sense? This is not a home setup I take it then? Yeah Derelict is right what does the diagnostics auth section tell you?

I think I need to take a break from this fourm. Instead telling what I want or what I should do you should offer to help me to get there. This isn't directly at only you (Johnpoz) but everyone who has contributed to this thread what I want or should do. I have found myself having to fight a battle here which I should have to do.
Thanks,

Good luck then.. But you have not actually asked a question that can just answer.. Other than can you put your unifi in front of pfsense.. Sure do that - do it via double nat, or turn off nat in pfsense and setup transit to pfsense want from your unifi router be it the pro line or the usg, etc. Personally do not get what that gets you exactly? And seem more like a discussion on how you can integrate unifi with pfsense - but with out some specific on that integration seems more of discussion.
This is not really a ask a question get an answer forum. This is a discussion forum, not an interface for your support tickets ;) If you want such support open a ticket with pfsense using your support subscription.
Not sure what openvpn auth to windows AD has to do with unifi as example discussion..
The ntopng info is vastly more useful than the eye candy the dpi gives in unifi.. How exactly are you trying to integrate your unifi with pfsense. And be more than happy to answer that specific question - but software there has not been a specific question to answer from my take.. Its a discussion..
Do you really need specific help putting pfsense behind usg - it would work out of the box in double nat setup, just like putting pfsense behind any other sort of nat router.. Do you need help on creating a transit network between your edge usg doing nat, and turning off pfsense from doing nat? Problem with the nat option is your dpi info would just show pfsense wan IP doing all the traffic.

Yeah I am not exactly sure what OP expects to happen here. A complete AD authentication design consultation from a forum member?
-
Enable NPS in AD
-
Create an NPS client for pfSense
-
Create a RADIUS authentication instance in pfSense
-
Test in Diagnostics > Authentication - get it working there.
-
Enable that for OpenVPN.
-
-
LDAP works with OVPN too.

The main pont was this sentence:
I actually make fun of them not owning the Pro saying they aren't "PRO" enough!
He wants to make a "PRO" looking thing to be able to boast to his friends. This whole topic and OP has nothing to do with real issues and solutions.
If somebody can't understand (including friends) that pfSense is more "PRO" than anytning containing "PRO" in its name, let them go… -
Ah so he wants to brag to his buds hey I run "pro" usg and pfsense - so I am extra "pro" hehe
Think you hit it on the head..
