Hi,

I am not sure if this is an OpenVPN problem or if it is caused by endian.

1. Here is my routing table of the OpenVPN Client before the VPN is up:

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 212.202.xxx.xxx * 255.255.255.252 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.168.0   *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 br0
default port-212-202-xxx 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1

2. When I start the OpenVPN, there will be an additional route, so that is goes like:

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 212.202.xxx.xxx * 255.255.255.252 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.168.0   *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 tap3
192.168.168.0   *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 br0
default port-212-202-xxx 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1

3. When I shut down OpenVPN afterwars, all 192.168.168.x routes are gone:

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 212.202.xxx.xxx * 255.255.255.252 U 0 0 0 eth1 default port-212-202-xxx 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1

Endian calls the script /etc/openvpn/ifdown.client.d/00bridge if the link goes down, and this script shuts down the routes:

run("ip route del %s/%s dev %s 2>/dev/null"%(net, cidr, config_value['GREEN_DEV']))

So, I am not sure if my OpenVPN Config is correct. Is there a good documentation for bridge mode in endian or some good docs for bridge mode in general?

Thanks,
Marco

Hello!

I've got exactly the same problem. After connecting while VPN the
IP-Adress from my NIC (formerly configured with static IP) is set
to 0.0.0.0 and also SubNet is set to 255.0.0.0. I guess that this
isn't a issue of endian and more one of OpenVPN or OpenVPN GUI.
My work-around is to use tools to reset NIC-Config by one Click
like IBM Access Connections.

I discovered a strange thing and I am not sure if it is me, my
setup or OpenVPN. I use OpenVPN for the first time, so I am not sure
about my config.

Here is the setup:

192.168.1.0/24 --- endian-fw0 ---(internet)--- endian-fw1 ---
192.168.1.0/24

I have set up OpenVPN in bridge mode because both networks use
the same subnet, but different IPs within the subnet. Windows Terminal Servers are located in one subnet, the RDP clients and printers are located in the second subnet.

My first problem is, that the link is is up as I can see in
the web frontend of both endians, but I can't ping and can't reach any machines trhough the vpn. So, it seems to be up, but it apparently
isn't.

The second problem occurs if I shut down the VPN link between
both endians. On the OpenVPN-Client, the route to the local subnet is deleted. The endian is not longer available for any of the clients in it's own green network.

I am using Endian 2.2b2 on both sides. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Marco
