      Dear All

      I have a pair of pfSense devices in a CARP setup running 2.5.2.
      The Custom options box is greyed out and I am unable to type any info.
      I am using MFA and read that it is recommended to add a Custom option of "reneg-sec 0" to the OpenVPN Server to avoid hourly re-authentication.

      I also have a single standalone pfSense unit for testing, also running 2.5.2, and on this device I am able to add Custom options.

      Does anyone know why this option is greyed out?

        @to2020 I managed to resolve this issue myself.
        I came across this article https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9511

        So even thought my regular login to my pfSense has access to "WebCfg - All pages" which is inherited from admins, it does not include the advanced options.
        Looking at the permissions for the "admin" user itself, I see nothing different, but that user still has access to these advanced settings.
