19.7 Legacy Series / Re: HSTS while browsing after vpn config

« on: January 02, 2020, 04:07:56 am »

ProtonVPN's pfSense guide was a total fail for me in 19.7 so you seem to be a few steps ahead of me.

johnw, this is the issue we are having. did you get around this somehow?

on step 8:

Enabling new Interface with OpenVPN client:
> IPv4 Configuration Type: DHCP

OPNsense GUI gives me error: "Cannot assign an IP configuration type to a tunnel interface"

Did you get it working as i use nordvpn and it works fine for me

Did you try it on 19.7? Or did you do it on 19.1 and it just continued to work after upgrading to 19.7?

Other tutorials say to assign an interface, and set IPv4 Configuration Type: DHCP
This worked in 19.1 but in 19.7 it shows an error "Cannot assign an IP configuration type to a tunnel interface".
I noticed in your tutorial here, you do not assign an interface at all. Is it not necessary to assign an interface?

I'm stuck on this too. I see that in the code, the option will always error for ovpn:
https://github.com/opnsense/core/blob/master/src/www/interfaces.php

Code: [Select]

        if ($pconfig['type'] != 'none' || $pconfig['type6'] != 'none') {
            if (strstr($pconfig['if'], 'gre') || strstr($pconfig['if'], 'gif') || strstr($pconfig['if'], 'ovpn') || strstr($pconfig['if'], 'ipsec')) {
                $input_errors[] = gettext('Cannot assign an IP configuration type to a tunnel interface.');
            }
        }I assume this means that the opnsense developer learned that this is improper for openvpn, and is now forcing us to do it the right way. The problem is that no vpn providers know how to do it the right way yet.
In the opnsense 19.7 release notes, this is the only mention of openvpn:

OpenVPN no longer supports listening on gateway groups.  Use localhost paired with port forwards instead.

Maybe that has something to do with it.
