      Is it at all possible to inject host routes of remote access clients into the routing table of the OpenVPN server running on pfSense?  i.e. Client A connects to OpenVPN server running on pfSense. Their assigned IP address is then evident in the routing table of the pfSense instead of the clients subnet?

        huh??  Why do you want a host specific route?  So what is your vpn tunnel network?  For example mine is 10.0.8.0/24, so yes pfsense has a route to that network via the openvpn interface.

        So client connects and gets an IP in the 10.0.8.0/24 network - so pfsense yes knows how to get to it down the tunnel.  Why would you want/need a host specific route?
