Hi, I have a weird problem with my VPN and WEBUI connection. I have pfsense on a virtual machine in proxmox. All the traffic is routed through pfsense. I have OpenVPN set up. I had configured proxmox to be avaliable even within pfsense network. So it's like ISP -> pfsense -> proxmox, vms, devices.

My problem began after i had power outage. After server reset, i cannot access pfsense IP over VPN. I can access all devices and other vms through VPN, but cannot access the proxmox IP (webUI nor SSH, PING). Funny thing, is when i connect to the network by wire, not through VPN i can access the Proxmox IP,ping it, webUI. By that i know, that it's not really a network interface setup, but something else. Had anyone encountered similar problem?
 
hi,

what about your firewall config? is your VPN behind the firewall? i'd check the rules just to be sure.

if you can log in to the server check the logs (in /var/log or journalctl/syslog) and the status of the VMs (qm list)
