"OpenVPN group" alias type missing

[klosz007]

Hi,

Documentation (https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/aliases.html) mentions "OpenVPN group" alias type but I cannot find such type in dropdown list when creating a new alias.
Has this feature been removed or is this a bug ?

Thanks,
Zbyszek

No one using this feature ? I'm looking for a way to grant different OpenVPN user types different access permission.

My first idea was to assign OVPN users static IP addresses and manually create alias (one per user type) containing their static IPs which then could be used in firewall rules. But that's a lot of manual configuration for larger configs. It has a limitation too - one user can only have one active VPN login session (otherwise multiple sessions would have same tunnel IP).

Using such aliases based on user group memebership and dynamically assigned OVPN IPs would be much more convenient way. But for unknown reasons such alias type (OpenVPN group) does not exist/cannot be created.

It's a new feature currently only available in the development version.
