      Hello everybody,

      I made a VPN with IPSEC between my router (which is a SOEKRIS net4801) and a windows 7, the tunnel succeeds to enable but.. I can not ping any address where my router is

      I plugged only one interface and let the firewall rule by default (accept any to any)

      is there something I could try ?

      My configuration is basic and followed these tutorials :

      https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Mobile_IPsec_on_2.0
      https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/IPSec_Road_Warrior/Mobile_Client_How-To

      Hope you could help me.

        So to be more precise, it seems everything works fine when I add the route manually to my machine (host2).

        exemple of a ping :
        host1 -> internet -> modem -> pfsense -> host2 ok
        host2 receive the IP 172.16.0.0 and don't know it (because its network is 192.168) so dont reply. -X-> pfsense

          First of all turn OFF the Windows firewall, then test something.
