      I am asking because there is a trend with privacy-vpn-providers to give out the exact same ip address to every tunnel with wireguard...

      Using VRF seem to be able to cope with that. Or maybe there is another solution, suitable for pfSense? What would it be?

            I'm not aware of any plans to do so. There are no great solutions to subnet conflicts like that where you cannot fix it by readdressing. Some sort of external NAT is about all you can do. If you're running virtual that might be an OpenWRT VM for one tunnel for example. If you're not running virtual, and are feeling adventurous ๐Ÿ˜‰ , that could be an OpenWRT instance running in bhyve in pfSense....

              Thank you Steve, that I don't have to ask around no more if there is some package or functionality in pfSense that I don't know about, which there is plenty... If this is the best I can do, I will look into it. I had run an OpenWRT VM before, it uses 120 MB disk space etc, so should be more then doable. ๐Ÿ˜‰

                Yup OpenWRT is (even now) so tiny you can consider doing things like running it in pfSense. Which is fun. ๐Ÿ˜
