      Hi all,

      Browsing various posts here, all I find is outdated information about setting up pfSense as a VPN client for Private Internet Access.

      Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how I setup PIA VPN with pfSense 2.2.2?

      BR Jim

          Thanks Heper, I have seen this, but it kinda falls out of scope for me, since I want the VPN traffic on a single VLAN only.

            shouldn't make much of a difference i would think … a vlan is an interface like any other

              It's the coupling of the VLAN and the OVPN interface I'm not understanding. How to get them "merged"?

                Huh?  What, precisely, do you want to do?  No idea what "merged" means.

                  My bad.

                  I have a vpn Lan VLAN just like any other normal VLAN.

                  I would like all my VPN traffic to be available on this VLAN only.

                  How do i define that in pfsense?

                    in the firewall rules for VLAN_x set the gateway to "PIA_gateway"

                    in all your other VLANs, set the gateway to "WAN_gateway"
