General Discussion / Re: External access to opnsense GUI
December 05, 2022, 06:10:42 PM
DISCLAIMER: The following action is not recommended as anyone can try to log onto your firewall admin GUI from the WorldWildWeb and you are inviting trouble.  But, I am providing you the answer, assuming you understand there are better solutions to what you trying to achieve.

To enable Remote WebAdmin access from the WAN (outside world), do this:
One the Firewall GUI, goto:

Firewall -> NAT -> Port Forward -> Click the [ + ] sign to create a new rule as follows:
    Interface:  WAN
    Protocol:    TCP
    Destination: WAN address
    Destination Range: From: 443 (or HTTPS) -- --  To: 443 (or HTTPS)
    Redirect target IP: "Single host or Network" and enter LAN IP of your firewall eg. 192.168.1.1
    Redirect target port: 443 (or HTTPS)

See attached image of what the GUI would show if the rule was entered correctly.  IP address for my OPNsense LAN is: 10.1.10.1

Save + Apply = JOY

Again... probably not the best idea, but there are times you need this to get things going initially.
