      Is the advice given here…
      https://blog.g3rt.nl/openvpn-security-tips.html#4-generate-diffie-hellman-parameters
      applicable to OpenVPN on pfSense?

      If so, where would I put that file in the file system and how would I configure its use?

        It's done automatically and always enabled.

        You can generate your own DH parameters rather than using the static defaults if you want.

          Awesome!
          Is /etc/dh-parameters.* unique per pfsense installation or is it the same for all installations?
