      We need some help to troubleshoot this scenario. We have 2 pfsense servers in our lan. Both with OpenVPN configured. Number 1 is OK, user can establish a VPN conection and access our internal servers as expected. But with pfsense 2 that is not the case. We can even login through the VPN and get a IP address, but we cant access/ping no computer in lan. Both servers have identical hardware and same pfsense version. We tried to upgrade to the last version (2.5.1) and restored the backup xml but VPN still not working. Maybe someone has a clue. Thanks!

        @tcmoven Start with the OpenVPN logs and see if they say anything. You have Allow rules on the OpenVPN tab for each server?

          The VPN server should run on the edge router. Since you have 2 servers, this is not possible.
          If you want a vpn access server on another device set up a transit network between it and the router.

            @viragomann Both are on the edge. We are configuring the second as a backup seerver.

              @kom Thanks for the fast reply. Allow rule is OK and logs shows no error. I'll try a clean instalation and configuration.
