OpenVPN is included in Freenas 8.3, and firewall packages such as ipcop and pfsense.
Notwithstanding any merits of running the firewall on a dedicated machine, I intend to run Freenas and a firewall under ESXI.
Whilst OpenVPN under Freenas does not yet have the benefit of a GUI interface, what reasons might there be to run OpenVPN within FreeNAS as opposed to running it within ipcop or pfsense? Does it make any difference at the end of the day in a VM environment?
