Adding route on client using OpenVPN

Post by CarmeloLabadie » Mon Nov 29, 2021 6:37 am

So this is my setup. Laptop Running Ubuntu OpenVPN version 2.3.2

I connect to a OpenVPN server that connects to an off-site network.

I get the OpenVPN client running and I can ping the VPN server. The server doesn't push any routes so I need to route on the client.

Adding the off-site networks to route to the VPNserver so that I can access the off site network.

So the problem I have is that my requests don't jump from 192.168.0.1 network to the off site 172...* one... Can I do anything about that on my client? I don't have any ownership of the server and routs are not pushed from server now , in the future i don't know
