Reserve lease assignment

[markn62]

I want to assign some rules to a specific client ip when connected to the OpenVpn server. How can this be done when OpenVpn is not a selectable interface within the Dhcp Server service? Thanx.

If you set a DHCP client to have a static address, you can create a firewall rule that controls that particular IP on the LAN to use a particular VPN interface. That rule can further be modified with other custom parameters?

Is this what you were asking about?

@ryu945 Yes, I know I need a vpn client ip to be static, that's my question, how? Are you suggesting PfSense can't set the client ip address, rather I have to set it static in the client software?

@ryu945 Found nothing on a Netgate forum search. Took a few hours but finally found the solution here. Needs a client specific override with the common name and the desired ip/subnet as an "advanced" entry i.e. ifconfig-push 192.168.98.5 255.255.255.248
