Assign Static IPs To Tap Clients In PfSense's OpenVPN Server
Answer : Solution 1: After some deep digging I found a bug in pfSense's Redmine tracker. This states that the OpenVPN server is missing the client-config-dir variable. Adding mode server;client-config-dir /var/etc/openvpn-csc; to the advanced server options as well as providing the client specific override ifconfig-push [IP] [netmask] did the trick. Solution 2: Some update from my experience: Valid for pfsense 2.3.2 Missing option "client-config-dir" was fixed. now its good. but now, by default, openvpn server config in pfsense has option "username-as-common-name" So in client specific override in field "Common Name" try to write username instead of the Common Name . if you have problems with assigning static IPs, try to inspect your openvpn server config in "/var/etc/openvpn/server1.conf" for that option. P.S. ifconfig-push option remain the same
