Request timed out from client side

[Alexandru]

Hello,

I recently tried to configure a VPN connection between site A and site B.

Router on site A has a lan of 192.168.2.0 and router on site B has a lan of 192.168.1.0
Firewall is off on both sides.
On both routers I enabled port forwardin of port 12345 to the main IP

On site A I have configured the VPN server with the following configuration

View OriginalServer configuration

dev-node "ServerVPN"
mode server
port 12345

proto tcp4-server
dev tun

tls-server
tls-auth "C:\\Program Files\\OpenVPN\\easy-rsa\\keys\\ta.key" 0

and a client file

Code: Select all

iroute 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

On client side it is configured the following

Code: Select all

- I am able to ping from one side to the other side VPN IP and the other way arround.
- I am able to ping from one side to the other side LAN IP.

The issue is with accessing from site A a virtual machine on site B. I always recieve a Request timed out message.

I am able to ping from site B client to that machine.

If this help here is a traceroute
#192.168.1.147 is the client ip

tracert 192.168.1.147

Trace complete.

#192.168.1.43 is the ip of the virtual machine I try to access.

tracert 192.168.1.43

I am new to this kind of configuration so I assume that it is probably my fault at some configuration setting I am not aware of. Can someone support me in this matter and help to investigate further?
