      Hello, I want to make a VPN connection and I need some advice on how to make it work. I have a contract with a company so we can install/reinstall their OS, they have an Active Directory server on the network that provides installation of software when a new PC is added and process takes about 1-2 hours to complete so I was thinking to make a VPN connection from their AD server to our pfsense router so I dont have to stay 1-2 hourse at the clients desk. I want to add an extra network card in our pfsense router for this connection so when I add a PC to  this card it can get DHCP and AD connection directly from the clients network.

      From what I googled by now I think I need a TAP-Bridge connection. The thing is that IDK how to set it up and I was hopping that I will get some help here.

      Thank you.

        Hi!

        You can use OpenVPN in bridge mode for that.
        Add network adapter and bridge it with OpenVPN tap device.
