ServerInside <---> OpenVPNServer (Outside) <----> ServerOutside.
We choose to use the split tunneling option because we dont want all the traffic of the ServerInside tunneling into VPN.
Here is the client.conf of ServerInside
Code: Select all
route-nopull
route ServerOutsideIp 255.255.255.255 vpn_gateway
Code: Select all
;push "redirect-gateway def1" (commented)
The Ping ServerInside -> ServerOutside works perfectly. Here is a tcpdump of ServerInside :
Code: Select all
03:06:06.519059 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 45210, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
10.8.0.14 > ServerOutsideIp: ICMP echo request, id 12723, seq 32, length 64
03:06:06.591531 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 47, id 36420, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
ServerOutsideIp > 10.8.0.14: ICMP echo reply, id 12723, seq 32, length 64
Code: Select all
3:12:54.974800 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 39, id 4679, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
OpenVPNServerIp > 172.31.17.228: ICMP echo request, id 12741, seq 1, length 64
03:12:54.974826 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57406, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
172.31.17.228 > OpenVPNServerIp: ICMP echo reply, id 12741, seq 1, length 64
The ping doesn't work in this way. The icmp request is well received in ServerInside interface eth0, forwarded to tun0 going to the openVPNServer, but it seems that the ServerOutside doesn't receive.
The tcpdump of openVPNServer:
Code: Select all
20:50:49.092278 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 60561, offset 0, flags [none], proto ICMP (1), length 84)

Even if I am newbie to openvpn, have some basics to networking, didn't expect that setup a basic split tunneling will bother me for few days .
Is it possible to configure the route so that the (ServerOutSide -> ServerInside) ping reply doesn't go by the VPN tunnel, but that the ping (ServerInside -> ServerOutSide) goes by the VPN....
Hope that openvpn guys here could give me the lights
