Hi there!

Admin can put this in the right forum section, if this is the wrong one.


I have tried to search all the avaliable thread on this forum, tried google, and reddit aswell. Many of the "guides" are pointing to the "old" Legacy setup (which i can do, sure, but isnt the point for legacy for it be decrepit and decommissionssoon?)


I've been following the https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/sslvpn_instance_s2s.html#before-you-start on the official Opnsense Doc website.

Everything's been straight forward until i reach https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/sslvpn_instance_s2s.html#prepare-site-a


  • Copy the public part of the certificate authority to the firewall at Site A (use the download button and copy the contents into a new CA on this host)
^I don't understand.. The public part from where? The instruction is kind of unclear imo ^

What am i not getting? It doesn't feel like the Doc i up-to-date on a couple of sections and/or guides that i tried to follow following the newly created instances aswell as IPsec Connection tabs (aswell as Wireguard).

I'm not trying to be rude or create a discussion, just trying to make sense of things


No respons, hmm..

Am i asking the wrong questions?
