General Discussion / Re: External access to opnsense GUI

« on: October 22, 2021, 11:47:17 pm »

Hello guys being new to this IT world in general i started with a PC ,with OPNsense installed ,playing and exploring. I have my PC not in a real wan but inside my ISP's Home Router on a typical Private Network. I just want not to go to the room where my Firewall is to configure it through gui. So i want to see if  MY IP binded with MY MAC-address can access the gui through WAN.The reason firewal is there and not in my PC directly is cause i have 2 server machines directly connected to Firewall so only them are protected from my firewall right now. I just wanted to see if can and actually if it is easy. I do not want to open the gate(I know about security risks i have only the very basic security knowledge but i am mid level network engineer). So i would to have this opportunity only as long as configuring the Firewall some afternoons when i am going from work. That's why i want to be an easy configure to access in order to cancel it wasy anytime. Thank you very much.
