Groups for outgoing VPN
-
Hi,
New here on the forum.
Using PFsense for quite some years, but on a very basic level.I am struggling with an answer to the following question (if not in the correct category, i appologise)
I have correctly configured an outgoing VPN connection to reroute outgoing traffic over a (payed) vpn server.
All of the clients use VPN now.
I now would like to choose what devices use the VPN, and what devices use the non-VPN route.
Is this possible, and if so, is there a tutorial to find somewhere? -

Which type of VPN? -
I used the PFsense tutorial on the NordVpn website ,.. i can't give a direct link now but willing to search for it if needed...
P2P SSL/TLS as far as i can remember
-
@DenBeiren it is called "Policy based Routing". You can read more about it here.

@Bob-Dig i think i found how to configure it,.. but how can i configure for example a "group" of IP's so i only need to put 1 rule in the LAN part of the firewall rules?
Or do i configure one rule for every client?
Not a network expert,.. sorry,..
-
@DenBeiren You can use aliases for that.

Which type of VPN?He mentioned NordVpn so it is a "privacy VPN".

@Bob-Dig
NordVPN is a provider, not a type of VPN.
Maybe IPSec, OpenVPN, WG,...
Not all supports policy routing. -

Should it make a difference? Once a VPN is connected, it's just another IP route, no different than any other point to point link.

@Bob-Dig
I think i got it figured out and configured correctly...
How can i check this in an easy way? within PFsense?
Or any other solutions? -
@DenBeiren Use a webservice like https://www.whatismyip.com/ on every host I guess.
