Packets don't route through vpn when macbook connected on wireless

geekdad

I have a new mac laptop. Version 12.0.2
I can connect with openconnect VPN to my network. I get an address assigned like 10.240.4.14 when I try to run an ssh session to 10.10.50.1 nothing happens. If I run traceroute the packets are all going through the wireless gateway and not through the vpn tunnel. I'm kind of stuck. suggestions?

I don't big specialist in the OpenVPN, but simple thing:

do you have route to network behind server?

If no, then do it, usually it writes in /ccd/[user_name] file on the OpenVPN server.
But you can push it on own Mac by [route add] command, of course, if you know address of network behind server.

Good luck.

Hi dad,

You're asking in the wrong place. These are the forums for OpenVPN, this one specifically for the OpenVPN Connect client for Mac OS.

OpenConnect is a free software client for Cisco AnyConnect VPNs. Perhaps they have a user support forum. We do not support it here, sorry.
