Problems with redirect-gateway def1 Windows 10

jschlis82

For starters I have very limited experience with OpenVPN or networking so I'll do my best to explain what I've done and hopefully if anyone has a solution to my problem they can explain it in a way which even a layman can figure out. I did have this working on a windows 7 server, but now have a windows 10 machine and can not get it to work.

The client will connect to the server, but when I go to access the internet nothing comes up. The internet works fine if I comment out redirect-gateway def1 out but than I don't think it's tunneling my internet connection through the server because when I check my ip address it does not show the home servers public ip address.

I checked the firewall and port 1194 is open. I also completely disabled my firewall in order to verify that it was not a firewall problem and I ran into the same problem of the client connecting to the server but no internet access. My goal is to be able to tunnel all my internet traffic through my server at home.

I initially installed the 64 bit version, than the 32 bit version... Same problems. I think I was only able to get the 32 bit version to work with windows 7 for whatever reason. I even took the old config files from the working windows 7 server and imported them into the windows 10 server and had the same problem. I did the following tweaks:

Start -> Right-click My Computer -> Manage
Services
Right-click Routing and Remote Access -> Properties -> Automatic
Right-click Routing and Remote Access -> Start

Next:

Control Panel
Network and Sharing Center
Local Area Connection
Properties
Sharing
Tick the box "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection"
From the drop-down list select "Local Area Connection 2", or whatever is the connection name of your TAP server connection.

regedit

Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Value: IPEnableRouter
Type: REG_DWORD
Data: 0x00000001 (1)

My server .ovpn file is as follows:

port 1194
proto udp
dev tun
ca "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\OpenVPN\\config\\ca.crt"
cert "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.crt"
key "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.key"
dh "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\OpenVPN\\config\\dh1024.pem"
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
keepalive 10 120
comp-lzo
persist-key
persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log
verb 3
push "redirect-gateway def1"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"

Client ovpn file is as follow:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote myserver 1194
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca "ca.crt"
cert "john-laptop.crt"
key "john-laptop.key"
ns-cert-type server
comp-lzo
verb 3

I'm at a loss and have been looking at different forums for hours now. If anyway one has any idea on how to get this to work I'd be grateful.

Thank you in Advance!

Hello,

Thank you for your response.

I tried the solution with the widows 10 tweaks the original poster recommended in that post which didn't work. I tried to create a static route with my router (NetGear wndr3700). I'm not sure if this is right but this is what I put in:

<code>
Destination IP : 10.8.0.0
IP Submask: 255.255.255.0
IP Gateway: 192.168.1.18 (This is the computer the server is running on)
Metric 3
</code>

The router software would not allow me to put in the VPN assigned VPN server IP address of 10.8.0.1 saying that "gateway should be on the same subnet as the WAN or the LAN interface"

Here is the log from the client:

The route looks ok ..

Try pushing the server LAN to the client See this HOWTO:
HOWTO: Expanding the scope of the VPN to include additional machines

Note: You only need to push the server LAN .. do not bother with the client LAN.

Then try ping 192.168.1.18 from the client.
And post route print from the client.

Thank you for your response.

I added push "route 10.66.0.0 255.255.255.0"

Giving me a new server config file which looks like this:

When I turn connect to the VPN server on the local network I get the following from the cmd (still no internet, this is how the it was set up with the last log files I sent):

I don't know much about networking, so I may be missing something really obvious here. Thank you for your help.

The route looks ok ..

Try pushing the server LAN to the client See this HOWTO:
HOWTO: Expanding the scope of the VPN to include additional machines

Note: You only need to push the server LAN .. do not bother with the client LAN.

Then try ping 192.168.1.18 from the client.
And post route print from the client.

jschlis82 wroteI added push "route 10.66.0.0 255.255.255.0"

Why did you push the route 10.66.0.0 .. your Server LAN is 192.168.1.0 ...

jschlis82

Just because that's what it references in the doc... Sorry I changed that line in the server config file to:

push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

Here are the new results from the cmd line, not sure if you want both or nor here they are anyway:

Thank You for your help

jschlis82 wroteJust because that's what it references in the doc

Always read the docs carefully and apply the priciples discussed to your personal setup.

jschlis82 wroteI changed that line in the server config file to:

Code:
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

Good.

Ping fails:

Still no go, I restarted the computer to make sure the regedit had taken effect and it still the same problem. I also verified that numerical value had been changed from a 0 to 1. Which it had. I decided to basically start over, uninstalled OpenVPN and installed a fresh 64 bit version I didn't change the static route created in the router and left the 1194 port open on the firewall. Port forwarding is on. My server config is:

port 1194

ca "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\ca.crt"
cert "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.crt"
key "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.key"  # This file should be kept secret

push "redirect-gateway def1"
push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"

Client Config File is:

I hook my iPhone to my laptop and try to connect to the VPN, this is the log I get on the client side:

Do you have any other ideas on what could be keeping this from working? It could be something obvious that I'm missing. Thank You.

jschlis82 wroteI hook my iPhone to my laptop and try to connect to the VPN

The connection to the VPN is successful .. OK

I would recommend you add

topology subnet

to the server config but that should not effect this problem.
(See --topology in The Manual v23x)

Essentially, IP_Forward does not appear to be working for you .. sorry I don't have much experience of W10.

I presume you can ping the server on 10.8.0.1 from the client :?:

jschlis82

I added topology subnet to the bottom of my server config making it look like this:

dev tun
ca "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\ca.crt"
cert "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.crt"
key "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\server.key"  # This file should be kept secret
dh "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\config\\dh1024.pem"

push "dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8"
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"

I pinged 10.8.0.1 from the client both on the local network and connected to the cell phone and came up with:

Unfortunately it looks like I'm having the same problem. Thank you for all the help you've given me so far on this, if you can think of anything else please let me know. I'll continue to work on it and let you know if I can figure anything out.

There are two points to note:

Connecting to a server on the same lan is inherently tricky ..
But as your PC/phone connection works you can disable your other network cards for testing.
Using 192.168.1.0/24 as your server side LAN is not recommended as it will probably cause routing conflicts.
You should change it if possible (probably at your router)
Any other RFC1918 compliant subnet is suitable. f.e 192.168.143.0/24

And you really should be able to ping the server LAN IP 192.168.x.18 by pushing the route 192.168.x.0 to the client ..
That is if IP_Forwarding is working and you have disabled your server and client Firewall !

IP_Forward is the Linux equivalent to the Windows Registry:IPEnableRouter=1

Traffic

I would make sure this is done right:

jschlis82 wroteNext:

Tick the box "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection"
From the drop-down list select "Local Area Connection 2", or whatever is the connection name of your TAP server connection.

You may also need to disable either your ethernet or wifi .. which ever you are not using.

Hi,

I had a comparable problem on my VPN client. My goal was to route all internet traffic through my VPN server at home in order to channel all traffic through the default gateway of the router which routes and filters traffic on the basis of my opendns settings. On the client side of a windows PC, it is not sufficient to enable "redirect-gateway def1" in the config file. When I checked my IP address as well as the welcome opendns page, it turned out that the client routed the internet traffic directly, so outside the VPN server, which is not what I intended. What I learned, is that windows allocates a certain priority to each network adapter automatically. In the menu network connections, this priority order can be changed. In windows, type View network connections, and then select View network connections at the top of the list, then select Properties and select either Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), select Advanced and uncheck the interface metric from automatic to manual. Choose a higher number for the Wifi adapter (e.g. 15) and a lower number for the VPN adapter (e.g. 10). This will ensure that all traffic first goes to the 'fastest' connection, which is marked with the lowest number, in this case the VPN adapter. Furthermore, for those who want the opendns filter settings to work, make sure that a specified opendns address is used instead of automatic DNS address allocation; enable the option 'use following DNS addresses' in the properties menu of Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).

Regards,
bart
