OpenVPN no listen 1194 port

fernandezharold

I have a firewall configured OpenVPN, the configuration as far as I can see goes well, however I do not listen to port 1194 in UDP, by the console of the pfsense make the following commands I see that the service is active:

[2.4.2-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/root: top
8504 root 1 20 0 20352K 5964K select 1 0:00 0.00% openvpn

[2.4.2-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/root: netstat -L
unix 0/0/1 /var/etc/openvpn/server1.sock

[2.4.2-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/root: netstat -l
udp4 0 0 customer-static-210-245-82.iplannetworks.net.openvpn .

I attach the configuration of my OpenVPN server and my firewall rules

what does this show?

sockstat -4 |grep openvpn

From the screen capture of the WAN rules, the 1194 rule has not been hit. (0/0 counters)

The traffic actually has to arrive on the WAN interface for pfSense to be able to do anything with it.

Packet capture on WAN for port 1194 and make a connection attempt. If nothing is captured, you will need to look upstream for the problem or the client is being directed to connect to the wrong place, etc.

Dude it's UDP not TCP (UDP is the preferred protocol for OpenVPN). You can't port scan for it.

What do the server logs say?

Run a packet capture like I said. Make a connection attempt. If you see traffic, check the logs for why it failed. If you don't you need to see why it is not arriving from outside.
