      Hi
      I have setup two pfsense servers in HA with OpenVPN listening on CARP Wan IP. While the clients gets connected to Primary Master and as soon as i disbale the WAN IP of primary the second pfsense box takes over as Master. the client without any interruption gets connected after some 13-14 ping timeouts using windows client. now when the first server WAN cable is plugged/reconnected and it assumes role of MASTER client gets disconnected and it prompts for password and upon entering credentials client gets connected.

      I want clients to reconnect seamless with as little ping timeouts as possible and without user noting of the switchover.

      I have gone through pfsense settings and couldnt find any settings that could indicate how to tune it or I might be missing .

      Please if someone can shed some light on its tuning ?

      Regards
