Hello,
I'm new to openVPN, i've recently configured an openVPN server on my synology NAS with the intention of routing all my traffic through it when I have to connect to unknown wifi locations. I was wondering if someone could look over my config file and the log file from my most recent connection attempt and let me know if there are any issues. I don't see any error messages so I feel like everything is working properly, however when i'm connected and i run a tracert to google.ca I don't see my vpn server IP address in the list.
Config file:
dev tun
tls-client
remote jibs.RestofHostNameGoesHere.org 1194
# The "float" tells OpenVPN to accept authenticated packets from any address,
# not only the address which was specified in the --remote option.
# This is useful when you are connecting to a peer which holds a dynamic address
# such as a dial-in user or DHCP client.
# (Please refer to the manual of OpenVPN for more information.)
#float
# If redirect-gateway is enabled, the client will redirect it's
# default network gateway through the VPN.
# It means the VPN connection will firstly connect to the VPN Server
# and then to the internet.
# (Please refer to the manual of OpenVPN for more information.)
#redirect-gateway
# dhcp-option DNS: To set primary domain name server address.
# Repeat this option to set secondary DNS server addresses.
#dhcp-option DNS DNS_IP_ADDRESS
pull
# If you want to connect by Server's IPv6 address, you should use
# "proto udp6" in UDP mode or "proto tcp6-client" in TCP mode
proto udp

I've removed my NAS hostname and external IP address from config and log file I posted above, I have verified that both of them are correct. I would like to ensure that all my traffic routed through my VPN server.
Thank you in advance for the help
