routing question
got a little routing issue, i would like to tell my router that connections to 10.8.0.x should be redirected to a local machine which then does the openvpn connection.
so my network looks like this:
Code:client - > switch -> router -> inet ^ openvpn server |
router 192.168.11.1
openvpn server 192.168.11.85
i tried:
Code:route add -net 10.8.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.11.85 dev br-lan
now i can run "ping 10.8.0.1" on my router and get a reply (10.8.0.1 is the openvpn server)
but my lan clients still get: "From 192.168.11.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable"
what else is needed?

I'm not sure how this might help you, but as I'm currently studying / trying to understand iptables (Linux's firewall) I would recommend you to create a rule there instead. Might work better as you are making a rule by establishing your own target and policy. It is indeed a bit complex, but once you understand it (I still could not) it's wonderful.

I would recommend you to check FORWARD chain of iptables. It's likely that there DROP policy is set (and maybe some ACCEPT rules). You can run
Code:iptables -L -v
And just in case check the value of the following system variables:
Code:net.ipv4.conf.br-lan.forwarding
Code:net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding
