- Subject changed from Create Interface Virtual Pfsense 2.2 Alpha not available to tun/tap interfaces not available for assignment in 2.2
- Category set to Interfaces
- Target version set to 2.2
- Affected Version set to 2.2
tun and tap interfaces should be available for assignment, whether tunX/tapX or ovpnsX/ovpncX.
The OpenVPN interfaces do appear for assignment in current code.
For interfaces made outside of OpenVPN:
tunX interfaces do not appear for assignment
tapX interfaces DO appear for assignment
So it appears to be partially fixed.

I do not think this is a good option to allow.
Since whoever creates the tun needs to provide a sticky interface name and tunX its not a stable one.
I do not consider a thing to be allowed.
- Status changed from New to Closed
the original issue here was that OpenVPN's tun interfaces weren't being added at all at the time. the remainder is a non-issue
