      Dear all,

      I have configured a site-to-site VPN between two pfSense appliances.

      The Client connects to the Server and I see that the connection on the dashboard is establish.

      On the network where the Server is, I cannot ping the Client nor the client network.

      On the Server I have 3 interfaces:

      • WAN (ibg0)
      • WIFI (ath0)
      • LAN_IBG1 (ibg1)
      • LAN (BRIDGE0) -> which is the bridge between ath0 and ibg1

      From the "Diagnostic" of the Server I can ping the Client using as "Source Address" the following:

      • WIFI
      • LAN_IBG1
      • OpenVPN SERVER

      and I cannot from:

      • localhost
      • LAN
      • WAN (of course which is correct)

      Same from the Server shell I can connect to devices on the client network but not viceversa.

      The firewall has the following rules:

      • WAN: allow only traffic for VPN
      • LAN: anti lockout rule
      • LAN: all traffic from LANnet allowed
      • WIFI: no rule
      • LAN_IBG: no rule
      • OPENVPN: all traffic allowed

      What am I missing?
      Kind regards,
      dk
