Hi all!

I've been searching the internet but can't find any good
documentation/examples on how to setup source routing in my FreeBSD.

What I want to do:

Let internet clients connect their OpenVPN to a FreeBSD box. The
client's internet traffic should be routed to a separate firewall
dedicated for all client networks (VPN and physical), where all clients
then leave the network.

The FreeBSD box has its own normal default gateway to speak with the
internet.
This route is needed in order to be able to keep the OpenVPN-traffic
flowing.

How do I source route the tunneled traffic, coming from e.g. 10.10.10.x
to the "client firewall"?

Are there any good examples out there?
Do I have to compile a custom kernel?

(the responses back from that firewall use a normal static route,
pointing 10.10.10.0/24 to the FreeBSD box)

Do I understand you correctly that you have a FreeBSD box acting as

 * OpenVPN endpoint
 * router
 * and firewall

all in one system and you want use the OpenVPN tunnel as default route for your *other* hosts? In that case what you need is some kind of *policy* based routing.

One way to go about it with more than one FIB (aka kernel routing table). The problem is that you have to decide on the routing table to use before performing the route lookup. For packets forwarded through your FreeBSD router you have to select a non default FIB during input filtering e.g.

    # simple case
    ipfw add setfib 1 all from any to any in via $lan_if



    # complex case for multiple interfaces
    # ipfw table <table_number> add <interface> <fib_number>
    ipfw table 1 add $lan_if1 1
    ipfw table 1 add $lan_if2 2
    ipfw table 1 add $lan_if3 2
    ipfw table 1 add $lan_if3 2
    # ...

    # lookup routing table number in a table
    ipfw add setfib tablearg all from any to any via table(1)

For traffic generated by your FreeBSD router you can't use the firewall to set the routing table because locally generated traffic only passes through output filtering by which time the routing decision has already happend. Instead you can set a processes default routing table with the setfib(1) utility or use a setsockopt(2) with SO_SETFIB for each socket. Jails can also set default routing table for sockets created inside the jail.

Remember that your DNS resolver can leak a lot of information as well if it uses the default routing table.

I would avoid policies based on IP addresses and prefer to define policies based on (pseudo-) interfaces e.g. route (and nat?) traffic from vlan123 through the VPN tunnel.
