OPNsense VPN Support

Support for OPNsense VPN as a robust alternative to Wireguard for secure remote access and site-to-site connectivity.

Roadmap Vpn Opnsense Networking Security

Summary

Integrate support for OPNsense VPN to provide a robust, enterprise-grade networking alternative to the current Wireguard-based reverse proxy model. This allows for deeper networking control and compatibility with existing OPNsense-managed environments.

Value

  • Flexibility: Support for users and installers already utilizing OPNsense for their network security.
  • Advanced Networking: Beyond simple reverse proxying, enabling full VPN capabilities (OpenVPN, IPsec, etc.).
  • Security: Leverages OPNsense’s hardened security stack for remote access.

Scope

  • Integration with OPNsense via API or CLI for automated configuration.
  • Management interface within Selora Connect for VPN status and basic controls.
  • Support for common protocols (OpenVPN, IPsec) as managed by OPNsense.
  • Automated credential/key rotation and provisioning.

Target customers

  • Advanced Homeowners (custom networking needs)
  • Enterprise/Managed Property Installers (standardized VPN infrastructure)

Open questions

  • Performance impact on lower-end hardware when running full VPN stacks.
  • UI complexity vs. simplicity for non-technical users.
  • Licensing or version requirements for OPNsense integrations.
