I've set up OpenVPN on my RPi3 and It's connected directly to my router. It's BTHub6 and I want be able to connect from LAN side of the BTHub6 which is 192.168.1.x and to my pfsense. Which has a wan IP of 192.168.1.82. The LAN which is used on the Pfsense is 172.16.105.0. What I want is when I VPN into my RPi3 I want be able to access the 172.16.105.x network when I'm connected to through my VPN

 

This is the network diagram:

I'm not sure i understand 100% from where you are connecting.

I'm guessing you want to connect from the internet to your Pi and then be able to connect to the 172.x.x.x network from that pi?

 

IF that is the case, it would make more sense to make the pfSense box the server for your VPN and connect directly to it. 

Like in this example:(didn't use the guide myself) https://www.sparklabs.com/support/kb/article/setting-up-an-openvpn-server-with-pfsense-and-viscosity/

 

Or moving the PI behind the pfSense box would make things simpler, too.  

 

OR do you want to connect from your 172.x.x.x Network to the PI to access the 192.168.x.x network? to change router settings for example?
