Hello dear friends,
I am managing the IT for a 70user company with a 400/400 fiber leased connection.
I have decided to move from Untangle (ridiculous pricing) to OPNsense and get the DEC3852 hardware.
The setup is not that complex, one (wired) /24 subnet for servers and clients and a separate /24 for the wifi APs for staff and visitors (the two networks won't reach each other).Will also add Zenarmor

Most of the employees do a lot of teleworking. So I will create 70 users with their certificates. It is absolute necessity to use OpenVPN without password, simply with the certificate. I want them to simply right click the openvpn client and connect.
Can I do that with OPSsense?
Thank you so much in advance

Yes. The setup let you choose different authentication modes: SSL/TLS, user auth or combined SSL/TLS + user auth.
Setup SSL VPN Road Warrior

However, all OpenVPN clients I know (Linux, Windows,  Android, iOS) give you the option to save the password anyway. So there would be no need to enter it on any time you're connecting.
