Hello,
First, I'm sorry about asking such a stupid question. I'm sure there is plenty of similar topics on this forum. However, the search engine is apparently sick of words such as "ping", "server" or "problem", and doesn't want to help me.
Let's start with the context. I am in a sort of captive network, in which only one of my devices can connect to the internet at once, and would like to bypass this limitation, using OpenVPN.
The server will run on the computer which has the authorisation to connect to the internet, and it will share this connection through OpenVPN.
The "real" network uses IPs like this : 10.188.xxx.xxx
So, the VPN may use those : 192.168.0.xxx
I'm not very friend with the notation "1.2.3.4/24"
Currently, the client can connect to the server and get an IP (192.168.0.10), but cannot ping the server. I assume that according to my configuration, the server IP should be 192.168.0.1, right ?
I have chosen to use "dev tap" but apparently it's not a common configuration. Does it applies to my case ? I've looked at the "layer 2 traffic" wikipedia page but I still not sure if it is what I want.
Thanks for your attention !
