Virtual private networks / Can I setup the opnsense box as an IPsec vpn client?

« on: January 04, 2021, 09:23:33 pm »

I have been trying to play with IPsec server on an AWS. I have setup an IPsec server, and I am able to configure my desktop PC (win 10) or synology NAS to connect to it without any issues. However, I would like to connect my opnsense box to it so all local devices go through the same tunnel without having to configure them individually. I want my opnsense box work the same way as it does as an openVPN client. Can I accomplish this, configuring the opnsense as an Ipsec client?

I have the following info available and nothing more:
Server IP:
IPsec PSK:
Username:
Password:

Here is the link I followed to setup the IPsec server on a ubuntu server

16.1 Legacy Series / Is this a bug? update, I still believe this is a bug

« on: March 14, 2016, 02:21:16 am »

I have a supermicro A1SRi-2758F motherboard
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Atom/X10/A1SRi-2758F.cfm

It has 4 gigabit ports and 1 dedicated IMPI ports. My setup is as follows:

ethernet port 0 = WAN
LAN = bridge 0 =ethernet port 1 + 2
ethernet port 3 = un-used

IPMI port = unused

However, if I log into the opnsense GUI interface through LAN ports,  under /status/DHCP leases, I can see the IPMI port has an IP address. This IP is accessible through the bridge 0, I have full access to IPMI management interface WITHOUT pluggin into IPMI port. This is not the case with pfsense. My understanding is you have to have ethernet cable plugged into the IPMI port to access IPMI management.

16.1 Legacy Series / DYDNS error with dns-o-matic

« on: February 06, 2016, 02:59:48 am »

I have been unable to get dns-o-matic work work properly. It always shows an error message on my dns-o-matic account, and email notification of the error. It seems the "username" was not properly submitted.

General Discussion / Where to find older builds? Specifically the 32 bit based on freeBSD 8.3.

« on: January 31, 2016, 08:01:09 pm »

I was trying pfense. I found this version is best with openvpn throughput.

The equivalent pfsense version is 2.1.5, 32 bit.

Thanks

16.1 Legacy Series / WAN interface limited to 100M-base

« on: January 31, 2016, 05:46:20 am »

I have supermicro C2758 mini itx board with 8G RAM, 4 ethernet ports.

I just install the 16.1 version. The WAN was set to autodetection by default. However, it is limited to 100M-base interface only. I have changed WAN to a different ethernet port, it is still the same. I have also tried to force it to 1000M-based, it doesn't change.

Any idea?
Thanks
