The problem is that push route options need to be established on both sides
of the tunnel.
If I establish them only on one side, routing does not happen.

Can you please confirm me that there is no way to route traffic from a local
network through the OpenVPN client on pfSense and back if push options
aren't established on both sides?


Regards, Stefan

Route push options.   Look in the forum where this is also talked about.

This was a known problem going into 1.0.   We cannot make everyone
happy overnight.
