Hi,
Not done much with OpenVPN previously. Default following the wizard it uses UDP/1194, which I expect would be block potentially on some “guest” networks etc. Off to Cape Verde on holiday later this year, so would be nice to use the hotel wifi for Plex and connecting to home stuff when required.
I also read that UDP is faster, TCP is more stable. So what is the consensus, setup up two VPN points, UDP/1194 and TCP/443 for example? I’m not hosting anything else on the 443 externally.
I’ve moved pfsense management port off 443.
Not looked at Wireguard yet and would install that on pfsense or setup a VM running it. Clients in use, Apple IOS devices and Windows clients.
CPU is pretty decent for home use - E3-1240L. I noticed RDRAND available in the drop down for OpenVPN, which the CPU supports, so I’ve enabled that.
With opening ports on the firewall, looking at snort too for IDS/IPS.
Apologies, Sophos XG user and wanted to explore pfsense again.
