      Hi,

      I ask for help for configuring OpenVPN PfSense.

      My configuration is as follows:

      WAN ADSL -> SG-4860 Appliance (default gateway for lan)

      I have set up the VPN tunnel, I can connect without problems and ping the network's default gateway.

      My problem is that I can not ping the lan hosts.

      For example, if I run a ping at 192.168.2.250 (gw) it responds.
      If I try a ping or remote desktop connection to a 192.168.2.19 client does not work.

      What can it be?

      Thank you all

        Check if the access is blocked by the remote device's firewall. Windows firewalls for instances block access from other subnets by default.

          Hi,
          The client firewall is disabled.
          I entered the static route into the client to reach the OpenVPN network and connected.
          The question is: why? If I try to create routing configuration on pfsense I can not connect.

            This is only needed if the VPN server is not the default gateway on the client and it does also only make a difference in that case.
            But you've mentioned above the pfSense is the default GW in LAN. So one of these must be wrong.

              Ok, problem solved. Client Gateway pointing to another firewall pfsense (I have two).

              thank you
