setting up vpn client on a freebsd workstation

[Vaida Bogdan]

My certificates are self-signed and they were signed by the same CA as
the server's.

What I did on the client:

ifconfig gif0 create
ifconfig gif0 tunnel aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc
ifconfig gif0 inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 192.168.1.1
What do I need to replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with and how do I test it
works until this step?

External Interface         External Interface (behind nat)
ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc             10.100.100.2
     |                                               |
--> VPN <--> Internet <--> FreeBSD Client (NATed extip: ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd)
