PFSense Site-to-Site IPSec VPN Tunnel For Remote Access

PFSense Site-to-Site IPSec VPN Tunnel 

For Remote Access

work from a small office/home office and I need to set up an IPSec site-to-site VPN between a Cisco/OpeNBSD IPSec-enabled gateway and firewall running PFSense. How do I configure the VPN tunnel so that I can access remote subnet and servers behiend a Cisco firewall/router securely? How do I setup a tunnel mode configuration which will provide you with an encrypted site-to-site network, allowing networks at multiple remote locations to be able to securely communicate using my PFSense located in my SOHO?

Internet Protocol security (IPsec) uses cryptographic security mechanism to protect communications over Internet Protocol (IP) networks. IPSec protocol allows you to authenticate and encrypt all IP traffic between your local office/datacenter/SOHO and remote location. You can pass all traffic over the Internet or through networks which would otherwise be considered insecure.

In this faq, you will set up the VPN using PFSense in tunnel mode (network-to-network VPNs) and use the ESP protocol in order to encrypt the VPN traffic as it traverses the Internet.
