Hi,

my answer seems to have gone AWOL. Here it is again:


I'm guessing this may be some of the magic of ICMP - but regardless the fact that there's a delay before communication is established tells me something isn't right.  I'm fairly confident adding a SNAT to the VPN server would fix this...but I don't want to if I don't have to.


if routing is configured correctly then you would not see the "request timed out" messages; it might be worthwhile to run tcpdump or wireshark on the VPN server to observe the flow of ICMP packets - that usually gives a good hint as to where any routing problems may occur.

tshark is available - but I don't know how to run it effectively for this.  The VPN server has both tun0 and enp2s0 interfaces available and it appears tshark only listens on one. Do I need to run multiple instances to capture both?


it is probably easiest to run it on the tun0 interface, as you will capture less non-relevant traffic. Set up the tshark/tcpdump filter, then run a 'ping' from the OpenVPN client to the server-side LAN GW straight after the connection has been set up. If you want, you can email/send me the cap file privately and I will have a quick peek.

cheers,

JJK
