Question about Site to Site
-
Hi, i have a question about Site to site Connection.(ist running, but i want to know if ist supposed to be like this).
For testing i set up 2 Pfsense.
Pfsense 1
192.168.50.254
Openvpn server
Peer to Peer shared key
IPv4 Tunnel Network
192.168.174.0/24
IPv4 Remote network(s)
192.168.11.0/24Pfsense 2
192.168.11.254
Openvpn Client
Peer to Peer shared key
IPv4 Remote network(s)
192.168.50.0/24Tunnel is up but Routing ist not working.
Routing tables show that on client side, there is no route to serverI solved this the old way, by adding openvpn interface + Gateway and Manual route on the client pfsense.
Question
on openvpn client setting remote network ist says:IPv4 networks that will be routed through the tunnel, so that a site-to-site VPN can be established without manually changing the routing tables. Expressed as a comma-separated list of one or more CIDR ranges. If this is a site-to-site VPN, enter the remote LAN/s here. May be left blank for non site-to-site VPN.
there i added
192.168.50.0/24 but it does nothing so i needed Manual route
is this behavier normal and the text just misleading me or i am thinking completly wrong.

By manual route you mean static route?
And what did you put as a gateway in the static route(if that is the case)? -
I assign an addtional interface (ovpnc1 in this case).
Activated this (no ip nothing just activated)
Then i set an static route to 192.168.50.0/24 on the gatway of this interface.(this was the way of doing this, as i know since years)
But my question is, the text in newer Version state like this is not needed any more.
