Remote Access
-
Well obviously I can't see for lookimg.
How to I set up remote access to the firewall? - I need to gain access from the internet temporarily in order to set up and diagnose VPN from one location.
I will be switching this off once VPN is working between sites.
Thanks

Well, I have followed this instruction (simple as it is) and It still doesnt work for me.
I suspect I am getting to the firewall as I get a completely white screen, rather than any internet not found errors
I need remote access as I need to set up vpn and both firewalls are in separate locations.

I would look at the page source in the browser and see if I could tell what I was really talking to.

I assume you have WebGUI set for HTTPS? Can you verify that you have a rule on WAN that allows access to your WAN address on port 443 from your remote public IP address, and that the rule is placed in the rules list such that it doesn't have a block rule above it that could preempt it?

Just checking : what is your WAN IP ?
Or, saying the same thing differently: is there a router in front of pfSEnse, or pfSense deals with an "Internet IP" (is != LAN IP).
