      Hello,

      I tried following this guide to ensure proper communication/failover when someone is connected via VPN.

      I applied this manual (CARP IP) which went fine:
      https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/vpn/openvpn/ha.html

      But can't manage to apply this guide:
      https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/ha-vpn-secondary.html

      I already created an alias for both nodes but can not choose them in the NAT-Outbound settings as destination, as described in the manual.

      Can anyone help me or do I even need this guide?

      ThanksBildschirmfoto 2021-12-17 um 02.43.36.png Bildschirmfoto 2021-12-17 um 02.43.09.png

        You're on the right way.
        The source network has to be the OpenVPN tunnel network. At destination select Network and simply enter your alias into the next field.
