Initiate ZFS replication from the pull side?

[Spacemarine]

I have two Freenas boxes, one inside my private network at home (behind router/nat), the other one inside a large company network. The freenas inside the company network needs to do zfs replication onto my freenas at home. HOWEVER, I can only connect from home to the company network with VPN, which I already have running.

Is there a method to initiate a ZFS replication from the PULL side? Reason for this is that I get a different IP-Address everytime I connect with the VPN, so I can't configure the address of the PULL from the Push side's of view.

I don't know, but your problem could be solved using a combination of dynamic DNS and port forwarding at home.

Yes, that is what I am trying to achieve at the moment. The problem is that I have a DS-lite connection, meaning only IPv6 public address, IPv4 address only behind a NAT. So I have to make everything IPv6. If I got that running, it should probably work that way.

The pull side cannot initiate ZFS replication. ZFS replication always initiates from the PUSH side.
