      Is this tutorial valid for pfSense 2.2.1 for setting up site to site openVPN?

      I will use it for gaming (2 sites LAN party), is this the best option?

      One of the pfSense boxes is running 2.2.1 (server), and the other one 2.1.5

        Should get you going OK.  Note that this connection will be routed so broadcast discovery will not work.

        Two errors in the video.  The WAN rule on prirouter only needs to be UDP 1194, not TCP/UDP and the WAN rule on secrouter is unnecessary and can be eliminated completely.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          Thank you for your help. Actually broadcast is exactly what I want the most. Furthermore, I followed https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=46984.0 and it seemed to be covering what I am looking for, but how can I use it as point to point (pfsense to pfsense), rather than pfsense directly to the client PC?
