Compare IPsec, OpenVPN, and WireGuard for pfSense site-to-site tunnels. Learn how to balance throughput, CPU overhead, and configuration complexity for your network.
WireGuard vs OpenVPN on pfSense: a decision guide that weighs throughput, authentication, and NAT traversal. Includes quick config snippets and validation steps for CE and Plus editions.
When extending a corporate network with pfSense, choosing the right VPN backend—WireGuard, OpenVPN, or IPsec—depends on performance, client support, and regulatory constraints. This guide compares features, trade‑offs, and walks through a WireGuard setup between pfSense and an Ubuntu client.
I am attempting a chained/double-hop VPN setup where all client traffic passes through 2 servers before reaching the internet: Client → Server1 → Server2 → Public Internet All peers are on these private address blocks: 10.103.213.0/24 (IPv4) and fd6f:9403:2887:9cd6:10:103:213:0/112 (IPv6). Below are the configurations of the peers and the IPTables rules in p
I have a few hosts behind a NAT router that I want to access via a wireguard VPN. I could successfully configure the private network, but there's still something that baffles me. I want each peer to: access each other ( 172.9.9.* ) via the VPN (via wg0 ) access every other host outside the VPN (via eth0 ). Here's a schema of the network and current configura
I am currently migrating a company-internal VPN from OpenVPN to WireGuard. While at it, I want to migrate it from IPv4 to IPv6. The infrastructure currently consists of one server and ~1200 clients behind DSL connections of several ISPs (customer-dependent). The amount is expected to grow and the network will be clustered at some point. I have read about ULA
I am trying to configure wireguard to work as a VPN server. The main problem is, that the gateway only forwards the VPN server ip to other server, not my client IP. My setup is the following: - server A (10.10.0.4) / CLIENT (10.10.1.3) -> wireguard server (10.10.1.2) -- (10.10.0.2) \ - server B (10.10.0.3) The wireguard server runs on a machine with two i
I have a Wireguard server on my home network which works fine on all my devices, including my phone when it's connected on Wi-Fi. The problem comes when I disconnect from the Wi-Fi and go on 4G, now my phone is unable to complete the handshake with my server. On my router, I have UDP port 51820 forwarded to my Wireguard server. On my phone, I connect to the
