      I have set up a OpenVPN server on pfsense. It works great when "IPv4 Tunnel Network" is set to be outside of our current subnet mask 255.255.240.0 (/20). When this tunnel network IP is set to something within the subnet, a VPN connection can be established, but I can't ping any machines, or have any kind of internet access.

      I'd like this Tunnel Network IP settings to be inside our subnet if possible.

      I also have "Provide a DNS server list to clients" and "Force all client generated traffic through the tunnel" check marked

          You're looking for a VPN-bridge:
          http://sclabs.blogspot.co.at/2012/05/openvpn-bridge-with-pfsense-201.html

          That's not well supported and it's not recommended:

          Some guys here who tried that got no luck with it. It's better to do routing with a different tunnel subnet.
