Specific IP for User Group

Hello

I am running OpenVPN on an EC2 instance using the official OpenVPN AMI. I don't have the server running in the cluster more and I want to setup so that some users are having a different internal IP from the rest of the users.
So far I tried adding a new network interface to my instance, setting it up to be visible by the server, but I can't setup that the users with a specific group use it when accessing other internal service through the VPN.
Also, tried using the Routing functionality but still the same IP appears to be used by all the clients.

Any suggestions on how I can debug this or try setting it up another way?

Hello yakumoto100,

With routing the VPN client IP addresses will be visible on your network. That seems to be what you want. It does require that your network knows how to respond to that, by setting up static routes for the VPN client subnet that point to the Access Server. That's basic routing.

I suggest you contact our support and request assistance in diagnosing the issue. Using tcpdump and analyzing your configuration settings can probably point out where the issue is.

Kind regards,
Johan
