Proxmox hosts unavailable through VPN

[exitcomestothis]

I use proxmox for tinkering around with at home, and for remote access, I rely on an IPSec VPN that's setup through PFSense.

When I connect through the VPN remotely, I can access all the hosts on the local network, (i.e., router, DNS, my desktop, file server, etc, etc) However, I CAN'T access the proxmox server, or any of the hosts on it, despite them all being on the same subnet as the rest of my network.

I've been able to get around this by adding a static route to the subnet that I use for my VPN connection to the hosts on (this route is also on the router for my network, which is how I'm able to access all my other hosts, except for proxmox).

On proxmox, the hosts are all setup to use the bridged ethernet connection, and can access the other hosts on my network, just not over VPN.

Is there an easy way to fix this without having to add the static route to all of the VM's on the proxmox machine?

if you're not absolutely dependant on IPsec, I suggest your to have a look to OpenVPN in Bridge Mode, which is very well integrated in pfSense (it has a client manager)
In OpenVPN bridge mode, your vpn client directly gets an IP on the LAN subnet, so you don't need to add static routes.
