      Hello,

      I am looking to set up IPsec mobile, but would like to be able to allow certain people access to more of the network than others.

      Is it possible to assign DHCP reservations for the network the mobile clients get? Maybe by client MAC address?

      I've already searched and only found a post from 2012, so I am wondering if this situation has changed.

      If this isn't possible, I suppose the other option is to run a few pfSense VMs just for mobile clients on their own public IPs, but this seems wasteful.

      Adam

        Just looked at the IPsec Mobile configuration options again - doesn't look like it will be possible as users aren't dropped into an existing subnet, but a virtual network.

        Anyone know better? :)

              In another thread, with some manual hacking, someone had this working from RADIUS. If it does work in a reliable way we'll bring it into the GUI eventually, but it's not there yet.
