Pfsense behind nat: openvpn config export with RFC-1918 address
-
Hi,
I'm having my pfSense behind a router so pfsense's WAN-IP is only a private (RFC1918) address.
From the first router I've got a nat for openvpn from the public IP (the first router also has a dyndns record) to pfsense for "Remote Access (SSL/TLS)" and that works.When I export my openvpn config I get an .ovpn file that has
"remote 192.168.4.3 1195 udp"
while that's the WAN IP address of pfsense - due to the fact that it's sitting behind the frist router.My question is:
Can I somewhere configure an alternative name that is used in the openvpn export instead of the WAN-IP?Thanks & KR

Have you tried the "Host Name Resolution" dropdown menu?

no, where to find that?
(sorry, still noob in pfsense) -
Choose Other and enter your public IP or host name.
