Setup OpenVPN Remote Access [Close]

[hazly92]

Hi All,

There is something I don't understand how to setup OpenVPN for remote access, Let say I want to access my server at home remotely. So the question is is the local network must be my public IP or my local network IP as example setup on picure 2?

Thanks.

As per the description on the "Local Network:" box,

"This is the network that will be accessible from the remote endpoint"

Remember, you're configuring the OpenVPN Server here so the "remote endpoint" is your OpenVPN client (laptop at the airport for eg.) and the "network that is accessible" is typically your LAN network behind the pfSense box.

If and when your setup gets more complex, you can have more than one Local network available over the VPN entered as a comma delimited CIDR list.
