Re: TUN can assign public IPs?

IP: xxx.145.50.1 Netmask 255.255.255.0

As you know I am using public IP pool so xxx.145.50.1 already configured at router side as gateway.
please advise.
unfortunately you have to divide your subnet....

how good is your subneting skills? :)

the downside is that you will lose some ips on the way....
your problem is purely ip subnetting...

So If i divide my subnet IP: xxx.145.50.128 Netmask 255.255.255.128
OpenVPN server will take xxx.145.50.129 rest xxx.145.50.130 to xxx.145.50.254 for incoming VPN client.
problem is again that IP xxx.145.50.129 is gateway of this subnet am i right.

yes you are,
yes you need ip address re-assignment also :)
I don't know :)
i guess its time you will find out :)
no issue if I lose few IPs. :)
it depends of the number of subnets you intend to create,
using .128 mask you only lose extra 2 ips....
the problem is that you are assinging 126 ips to your clients,
if you want to assign 30 (+2) you need to brake your range by 8 (32*8)
meaning that you will loose 8*2 16 ips along the way... :(

Have your provider give you a /30 and route the /25 to it. No IP's lost then

Hi Michael, Douglas,

Thanks for advise, I have provided static route information to our provider.

I will update you once they done it.

Hello Michael,

I want to say thanks to you for understanding my case. :)

As I open this case name "TUN can assign public IPs?" answer is YES.

It is working fine I have configure OpenVPN on windows server OS it is working, after putting static routes for subnet which assigned by OpenVPN on our router side.

Regards,
Jebran.
