Virtual private networks / Guide for deploying OpenVPN Access Server + OPNsense
« on: August 08, 2024, 09:13:17 pm »
We have replaced our Fortinet FW with OPNsense. One of the outstanding things is get VPN back up and running. With the Fortinet VPN we were using SAML for Authentication, and I'd really like to continue to do that for ease of use by our end-users. It seems like we need to implement OpenVPN Access Server to have SAML authentication (source).
I've scoured the internet for the past 2HRs, no luck finding a guide for deploying OpenVPN Access Server and configuring it to work with OPNsense. Can someone please refer one for me?
Also, if we deploy OpenVPN Access Server, can we still configure an a Site-to-Site IPSec VPN *on OPNsense*? Or, does configuring the OpenVPN Access Server disable the OPNsense Site-to-Site VPN feature and offload all VPN to OpenVPN Access Server?
Ideally, I would like Site-to-Site to be done through OPNsense. And, end-users to VPN using OpenVPN Access Server, authenticating using SAML authentication.
