      Hi all

      Everything was working fine on my pfSense box until an outage in our datacenter last week. Some switch went down for apparently no reason and the simply power cycled it.

      We have two interfaces, WAN and LAN. All the rules allowing traffic from WAN to LAN work (i.e. allow HTTP to web server, mail protocol to mail server, etc).
      I can connect to OpenVPN just fine, and this gives me access to the webmanager.
      But I cannot access any of the devices on the LAN other than the pfSense box.

      On my OpenVPN client, the routes are added. The gateway is 10.10.1.5 but I don't know how to check whether this is correct or not.
      I haven't found anything particular in the FW log either.

      I'm at loss here, where should I look first ? Thanks a lot for helping !

        Well, this morning everything is back to normal...
        I have no clue about what happened, but anyway sorry for the noise.
