      I think there is a bug with the tap config in pfsense RC3.
      If I setup the tap device I don't need a "Tunnel Network" and this option in the openvpn config is wrong:
      "server 10.0.8.0 255.255.255.0"

      Right is:
      server-bridge <gateway of="" bridge="" interface="" lan=""><netmask><pool-start><pool-end>For example:
      Interface LAN 192.168.0.1/24
      DHCP Server LAN range: 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.100

      OpenVPN Server config:
      server-bridge 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.101 192.168.0.150

        server-bridge only expands into server and another two options.
        In fact, for bridging site to site, server is the right option.
        Server-bridge only makes sense for bridging clients and giving them IPs.

          That is what I want, get a IP address of the LAN with my openvpn connection.
