      Hello everyone,

      So I was trying to follow this guide: https://www.1strategy.com/blog/2017/08/29/tutorial-using-pfsense-as-a-vpn-to-your-vpc/ on connecting Pfsense and came onto an issue. We got iPsec to work fine (We contacted AWS Support to double-check,) but OpenBGPD is not sending or receiving any data from any neighbors.

      network *INTERNAL NETWORK*
      group "Ops Tun1" {
      	remote-as 64512
      	neighbor *NEIGHBOR1* {
      		descr "Ops Tun1"
      		announce all  
      		local-address 192.168.77.1
      }
      	neighbor *NEIGHBOR2* {
      		descr "Ops Tun2"
      		announce all  
      		local-address 192.168.77.1
      }
      }
      deny from any
      deny to any
      allow from *NEIGHBOR1*
      allow to *NEIGHBOR1*
      allow from *NEIGHBOR2* 
      allow to *NEIGHBOR2* 
      

      Thanks in advance for anyone's help!
