pfSense as an OpenVPN client

#pfSense as an OpenVPN client for specific devices

##Introduction One of the most powerful features of pfSense is it’s ability to direct your data requests through different end-points using NAT rules. pfSense is amazing as an OpenVPN client because it can selectively route any device on the network through the VPN service (i.e., my tablets and TV go through US servers, while my smartphone, VoIP, computers go my local ISP).

This setup becomes extremely handy for use with applications which are not aware of OpenVPN protocol, eg. download managers, torrent clients, etc. Expecting privacy you should be positive that traffic won't go through your ISP's gateway in case of failure on side of VPN provider. And obviously OpenVPN client should automatically reconnect as soon as service goes live again.

Note: This How-To is meant for pfSense 2.1.x. For those using 2.2 Beta, there is a bug that prevents this from working. Read about here in the pfSense forum thread, “[cannot NAT trough OPT1 interface on multiw

  6. Make note of the token. Replace any mention of YourTrelloToken with this looong hash.
  7. Pick a reasonable number of the most popular boards you use. Grab the URLs of those boards. At the same time, think of short, one-word, easy-to-remember names for each board (e.g., work, homeprojects, wedding).
  8. Grab the board IDs of the boards you chose. It'll be the ~8 character hash-like string in the URL. E.g., for https://trello.com/b/aWsGTrsD/work the ID is aWsGTrsD
  9. One by one, plug thos
