      I am trying to connect my "home-LAN" to a OpenVPN-server on the Internet.

      Lan : 192.168.171.x
      pfSense LAN : 192.168.171.1
      pfSense WAN: dhcp client.
      |
      |
      Server IP adress : 213.xxx.xxx.xxx
      Server OPENVPN : 192.168.201.1

      When pfSense connects to the server it receives an IP-Adress - 192.168.201.18
      VPN interface (tun0)

      Status up
      IP address 192.168.201.18 
      Subnet mask 255.255.255.255
      In/out packets 2560/3034 (210 KB/250 KB)

      and rules are added :
      192.168.201.0/24 192.168.201.17 UGS 0 1096 1500 tun0
      192.168.201.17 192.168.201.18 UH 1 0 1500 tun0

      From the OpenVPN Server I can Ping to 192.168.201.18
      But I cannot Ping to 192.168.171.1

      From the pfSense I can ping to 192.168.201.1
      But I cannot Ping to 192.168.201.18

      From the LAN i can I can Ping to 192.168.201.18
      But I cannot Ping to 192.168.201.1
